Jacking up from under??

[hungryeye]

I see some of you post pics of your bike on a cruiser jack, I can't see what you can jack on. I see exhaust header pipes and the tin heat shields, am I missing something?

I don't have it yet, but I aim to try something like this:



Use the ears under the engine guard to raise the front.

Take off the ears, set a small board on top as a buffer, and put it under
the shock linkage to raise the rear.

No hydraulics to leak down...

I've never done it without the belly pan on there.  I just use it.  I don't think I've ever seen the underside of mine except for the ten minutes it took to install the pan.
