Where did you hold the bike at the rear part of the stand? 

Is it supporting the bike at the foot pegs brackets? 

 

[Stevoh]

No, it's just lifting under the bash plate.

I have the same one as Stevoh and find it perfect for getting both wheels of the ground. Cheap and does the job.

 

The last time i looked Abba do not make a kit for the T7 so I would doubt that you could use the skylift as it looks as if it uses the bikestand as well.

I have the harbor freight lift, looks almost exactly like the Clarke one, easily lifts the bike up high enough for wheel and chain maintenance. I lock it at the second position, wheels are a few inches off the ground, it could go a little higher but that would just increase the instability since the jack base is small.  I use two straps from the crash bars to help prevent tipping.

If you have the room get a motorcycle hoist:

Infinitely more practical.

Can lift up very high,

you have somewhere to place tools,oil drain pan and other things

they're very stable

works with any bike as some can't be lifted by the belly.
