It’s pretty stable, although there is a little play in it while fully extended so be careful. I have a road glide special and it served its purpose. I was able to lift it about a foot in the air with no problems. It’s pretty sturdy. It’s heavier than it looks but not terrible. Once weight is on it, it’s a little hard to use the socket key to turn and lift the bike. I used a ratchet and socket to lift, then used an impact and it worked well. If you have a big bike like road glide or street glide, be careful because the bike will teeter totter forward and backwards if you put weight on one side. Use caution. Overall, good for the money
