Show your bike lift :)

[Dead Eye]

I tend to use a car trolley jack then support the frame on axle stands...

Unfortunately at one time I didn't have my stands for some reason and left the bike over night being supported by the jack (yeah I know... completely retarded). Came back out to find the jack had lowered but the bike was still upright... however, I made a complete arse out of it and ended up sort of cushioning the bike as it toppled over on to the garage floor. Was an absolute pain in the ass as the front wheel wasn't on at the time

Still, got it upright without any damage or scratches (dust sheets on the garage floor). I've learnt from that and certainly won't do it again - I never use a jack as a permanent support these days
