Thanks guys for all the info! I setteled on a Harborfreight 1000 lb. Motorcycle Lift for $299. Item # 91764-1UEC. It's 86.5" L x 27.5" W with a hight range of 6.5" to 31" and weighs just under 400 lbs., drive the bike up the ramp, drop the kickstand, tie it down and jack it up on it's own two tires. There is a removeable plate under the rear tire that allows you to remove/work on the rear tire, but you must support the back of the bike to do so. HOWEVER once you drive up the ramp REMEMBER you are now 6.5" higher then the floor so be SURE the bike is over to the right far enough for the kickstand to touch the plate or the bike will lean over too far for anyone under 6 ft tall to be able to steady it. I am only 5ft 9 inches and gave birth to HEMMORIODS trying to hold it up! I have since then purchased two 4" x 12" x 8' pine beams from Home Depot and lay them alonge the left side of the lift and now it's a piece of cake to work/clean etc.
