I add a strap to back. But if no wind kids or animals around it would be fine.Still looks a little scary though! Remove a couple studs and she'd flop over.You be careful young man.

Just another quality product by Barn of Parts.
Definitely has some meat to it.
Pretty simple install. Cannondale was right. One can hang the nose way over the lift without any issues.
Once on the lift remove the rear access panel fasteners.
Remove the 2 front A arm guard fasteners.
LocTite the new fasteners supplied.
Tickle the skid plate Under the A arm guard and snug it down.
Yeah, I know, why sticker bomb a skid plate? Just a little fun before the real riding begins.
Now the only reason to use a block of wood, jacking up the front end with a floor jack, is to prevent scratching the stickers.
This baby has some substance. And changing oil will only require removing 2 additional fasteners.
Definitely a product to consider. Thanks Barn of Parts.
