VB Image Host is working again, after being down for a long time. I just uploaded a .jpg Make sure you are using one of the supported file types, and are under the max allowed size. Jerry.

There seems to be a problem with you images. I will have an admin take a look, but it looks like you might have to re-upload them as they are not showing in the image area either.

Two useful accessories
Don't know if anyone else is using these, but I have found the swing arm lift and the low motorcycle dolly (yeah, I know...) from Harbor Freight tools to be really useful. The swing arm lift is obvious, and probably popular, but the dolly has allowed me to get my bike and my two cars in the 2-car garage... always ready to roll out.

I bought one of their swingarm lifts, and It doesn't fit on the Rebel. They had two models; maybe the other one does.

Really, swing arm lift doesn't fit?
I'm surprised. With the adjustable U-brackets, I would think that mine can fit a wide variety of bikes. Hmmm.

Yours may be the other model, or have different hardware on it. Mine came with very shallow hooks that would work fine if I took the mufflers off every time, but they don't fit in between the swingarm and the mufflers. It's very good at collecting dust. Harbor Freight is a real crap shoot. I have bought some items there at less than market prices that perform just fine. This isn't one of them.

Sorry to hear that. I guess it was pure luck of the draw that mine worked!
