I'm looking for a good flat scissor jack to use on my Triglide with my Handy B.O.B. lift.
Anybody have recommendations for a good one?
thanks

I've been using this jack http://www.gregsmithequipment.com/Atlas-Motorcycle-Jack for quite some time now, it works well on both bikes and trikes.

Red Ultra Powered By Head-Quarters 120, Easy Clutch Pull By ClutchWIZ. 2012 GL1800 Hannigan. I've yet to ride a stock Harley which wasn't in need of a mechanical intervention.
I have one of those type and the roll under variety. Also have heavy duty hooks in the garage rafters to strap bike just in case. Of course this was for working on the 2 wheeler. I have only jacked the front end of trike up enough to spin the front wheel for cleaning.
I have 2 suggestions
1-go to your local salvage yard & look for a scissor jack with a low profile & a wide footprint. I bought 2 for $5 and modified the one with the lowest profile to get a larger, more stable footprint.
2-check out a 12 volt jack like this one -

I have a similar 12 volt jack to the one above, but I made modifications to make it sit lower, both styles work great and both work on my Tri Glide & FXSTS
