Hello,
I want to replace my stock HD rear brake pads with Lyndalls, so I need to jack up the rear end. The HD shop manual says tie the front wheel down, place bike jack under frame at the clutch and lift.
Since I don't have a bike stand I can't really tie the front end down. I find that with the trike on the jack and front wheel in the air it is very easy to apply lift to the back end and get the left rear wheel off the ground. Not so much with the right rear. Jeez how much does the parking brake weigh??!!
I found I can put a second jack under the right side where the rear frame meets the front and apply enough lift to get RR off the ground. This is really Micky Mouse in my opinion.
How does everybody else do this? Thanks
