<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I bought one like this at Harbor Freight more than a decade ago. I place a board on top to make a flat surface and the tube frame rests on that just fine. You don't have to remove the "skid
plate" either. Just wheel the lift underneath and crank 'r up. The only thing to watch for is the breather/overflow tubes sticking out the bottom.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I used to use a wooden stool with enough boards on top, placed under the center of the bike, to get one end off the ground. I got it onto the stool by leaning it to one side while inserting
boards under the lifted side, then alternating. Later I bought a hydraulic motorcycle lift from Pep Boys on sale for $50. They probably cost more now. But I've used it on many of the bikes I've owned since the Transalps and it sure makes maintenance easier.
Another alternative would be to use a hydraulic "bottle jack" under the center of the bike to lift one end and place jack stands to hold it up while you work on the front end. Or, if you have a ceiling beam in the garage and a block and tackle, hoist the
front end by the handlebars till it's off the floor. Or, I've seen enduro riders lay the bike on its side to change the tires. If you have something to cushion the bodywork, that might be an option.
