I didn't buy this today. So shoot me.
But I wanted to post this purchase again, because this lift serves me so well, and many people need a lift. https://www.chinariders.net/showpost...postcount=3432 I guess Herbie fright no longer sells this. But amazon has one for $40 which is about what I paid. Other vendors have these things at upwards and over $100. Rip off. It is a simple lever, works great. The swingarm supports are adjustable for different widths of swingarm. It is a one step, one and done lever. And since the swingarm cradles are forward from the rear axel, you can remove the rear tire. The only problem is this DOES NOT let you lift the front wheel. So I do have a scissor jack for that. The scissor jack not only lets you lift the front wheel with the rear wheel on the ground, but also allows you to just barely lift the bike so that BOTH wheels are in contact, stabilizing the bike for all sorts of work. https://www.chinariders.net/showpost...postcount=2752 Here it is with BOTH tires on the ground. Very stable lift for working on the bike TankSeatRemoved.JPG

I didn't buy it, but Mrs.C finally got a new phone. I kinda pushed that she get something other than the free POS that AT&T offers because I'm tired of having to listen to the harping when she runs out of storage. She downloads a lot of games for the grandsons to play so her phone is also a Petri dish I don't want to touch.
Anyway, she got a Moto Z flip and I have to admit that it's impressive. She's more into the tech crap than I am. There was also the week long overthink on her part before we got it. Aw crap, the account is in my name, so I did buy it.

A pair of Motorola Edge phones for me and wife. Even she didn't think a folding phone screen would hold up to her usage. Didn't see the added value in Edge+ phones really. Both our phones had been acting hinky for quite some time. I like mine so far. They don't sell a holster case for it yet though. I have it wedged into one for an Edge+ phone.

We went to Costco for eggs and butter yesterday. Four hundred dollars later, we left. We did get the eggs and butter. I threw in some coffee. Mrs.C went into nutso grandma mode.

Sixty two bucks postage for Christmas presents to Maine. Ninety bucks for meds. And, because Mrs. C has been klutzy today, thirty for a new lid for her food processor. OTOH, diesel is under four bucks a gallon locally and I didn't need any.

He hacked into the county computer and replaced the image of his property with an empty field.
Mine was $441.
