Personally, I bought a hydraulic one from JC Whitney.

Have to roll the Savage up on a low brick to slide the lift under the bike, but I really like the ability to get it off the ground far enough for my poor old bones.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

If that detail wasn't there, then I'm glad you added it. They're visible in the photos though...
