I was on the Kawasaki Vulcan forum and it seems that a lot of Vulcans have the oil sump lower than the frame-I guess the same engineer works for both companies.

It was an old thread with some good ideas.

One was this company:

scroll down to the universal lift adaptor.

The ATV jack has some nice features- the built in stops as well as the wide extended supports on the base that fold out

I wrote to them and they asked for some info-

It may be possible to lift your Triumph Tbird using the MAL-2 adapter. I need to know the distance from the frame bars to the ground and distance between the bars to b certain.

It's a heavy sucker at 95 lbs but looks like it's got some real support and would last a lifetime.

The V-lift and the board lift looked interesting.

I may give the adaptor place a go when this (non military) maritime assignment is over in the fall. I'm far from the bird but it's not forgotten.
