Motorcycle Jacks
Can you use these for sportbikes? I've seen one for $60. But I was messing around with my bike and didn't really see any place that you can jack it up other than the exhaust. Seems like a good investment @ $60.

I don't think it would work for a street bike very well.... I could be wrong.
However, these work great for dirt bikes.

Sweet, I dunno maybe the race stands might be better and more secure especially when taking off the wheels. On the motorcycle jack you try to get the axle nut off an slip...there goes the bike off the jack
