The best addition to a motorcycle jack is a 4 wheel dolly...
bolt 2x2 wood or something like 3/8x3/8 steel tube to the jack, lengthening the arms (they're too short out of the box). Then, place dolly across the arms, then lift it up to the engine, and drop the engine onto the dolly. Lower the jack, and the dolly (if you planned correctly) rolls right off with the engine on it, and moves to where ever you need. Then slip jack back under the dolly to lift engine back up.

If the jack is too tall, then rebolt the dolly wheels on some spacers to make it slightly taller.
