Any Canucks tried one of these units? It's on sale right now and Princess Auto is paying the shipping. May give this a try and return it to store, if it doesn't work for the Goldwing. One of the reviews claims to have pulled a goldwing engine using it but info is vague.

I'm looking forward to your feedback. Removing tires from a 2018+ is easy, so I'm not too sure I would need one, but the compact size could make this lift VERY attractive to RVers or anyone else with limited storage space.
I've used that exact same one on several bikes, Goldwing included. Place it under the center stand mount to raise the back tire. Put the bike on the center stand and place it under the motor to raise the front tire. No need for the two telescoping saddle adapters for the Goldwing.

Fairly certain that a block under the side stand makes for room to add some surface under the frame with a bit of lumber, some flat stock steel or a piece of the conveyor belt I have hanging about, nicely. The jack is a bit narrow in width but plenty long for what I need.

Definitely a tad heavy to be carting around in a Goldwing tow behind, but for the RV, camping trailer crowd, I'd feel a ton safer pulling this unit out on a mountain pass or side of the highway than the scissor jacks most vehicles come with. 🍺

Gaffer, what was the sale price? I'm going to check it out and I've found Princess very good at honoring the sale price even after the sale is over.

Think it's past the sale. I got it for $69.99 and they are still covering shipping due to Covid.
This what they have on sale this week

Google, eBay or Amazon for "motorcycle scissor jack" and you'll come up with all sorts of opportunities to purchase one of these jacks for anywhere from $55 to $90 and more if you don't exercise good judgement.
Personally I prefer a Wooden Dowel and a Piece of 2X4 that I carry for just such occasions. DIY instructions below.
