that wont work 4me.

how much for the rear? any pics/measurements?

Thought I would go ahead and conclude this thread.

Went with T-Rex and I couldn't be happier. Much better bang for the buck then the Pit Bull stands which I was able to see in person at a local shop. Certainly not a knock on the quality of Pit Bull, but rather the price!

Don't have a much better picture of them but I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Went with what CEO recommended and I got everything plus the required spools for the price of one Pit Bull stand. Tom at T-Rex was also very prompt in answering any of my questions.

I will recommend these to anyone that ever asks. :rockwoot:

one thing to remember:

NEVER EVER NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER EVER EVER put your bike on a rear stand in complete pitch black at 11pm at night after getting up at 3am to do a track day on a 95 degree day, getting stuck in traffic for 4 hours on the way home and being so dead tired you are going to fall over anytime soon..

bad things happen..

like bending up your rear stand and dropping your bike breaking the new mirror you just bought.. doh!

then you spend the next day sledgehammering the rear stand until it fits the bike again..

10-4 on that. When all of those planets align I will be sure to avoid the bike.
