Gonna do the forks on my SV650. I've done this a few times, but I've always hung the bike from some rafters. My condo doesn't have rafters and I really don't feel like rigging something for this job. I don't have a triple clamp front stand, nor do I know anybody locally I can borrow one from. SO! I'm going total sketch with this using an auto jack, never used a jack on something that doesn't have a frame to place it on.
Can I place it here without causing damage? Of course, not on the exhaust pipe, but on the engine. The jack should clear the pipe. My gut says yes, but just want to double check. I will have the rear end on a normal swingarm stand when I elevate it.
