I've been meaning to fabricate accessories for my 3 ton floor jack, like a saddle that will support a bike. Perhaps another for a quad.

Yes, but I already have a floor jack, and only so much floor space.

That's the idea. The saddle lifts out of my jack, so it would be easy to make attachments that could just drop in.

I have a transmission jack, I never thought about using that for a motorcycle Jack. I bet that would work.
