I NEVER EVER use the jacking points, and deffo wouldn't let anybody else. Bad news mate, figers x'd it'll be sorted easily, cheaply and most importantly correctly

I use rear beam or subframe, then support on stands. Extra messing around somtimes but I havn't had the same problem as fatboy yet8-)

I go for the chassis rails if I've got a proper jack to hand but with the normal fart arse trolley jacks that don't reach that far I use the subframe as well. For the rear I use the rear beam
