Trans jack to lift a motorcycle

Topic starter

Anyone ever used a transmission jack to lift a motorcycle or vice versa? The thought just randomly came to my mind. Obviously if it’s a big ole Harley it might exceed the capacity of some transmission jacks, but can transmission and motorcycle frame jacks be easily used interchangeably? I don’t have a motorcycle (yet), but I do have a transmission jack.

Well they make special checks to pick up motorcycles and they work quite well. Realize the good ones have hydraulics in them and they can handle the weight. Now. If you're looking at a cheap scissors Jack one that is a screw Jack, it probably wouldn't hold up well, but all the ones with hydraulic cylinders work fine
