We've got Pitbulls. I've also heard other people insist that there are less expensive ones that are just as good, but we got a helluva deal on ours, and love em.

Before you buy a stand, see if someone has one that you can try first.
Alot of stands won't work with the Gen II bike because the taillight sticks out further than the rear tire, which will not allow the bike to get on the stands.

I use stands from www.motrax.co.uk
I got them from the local dealer for around $100 for the rear.
I will take a pic when I get home.

It looks like this one.

That's why you get the one-armed Pitbull. I have used this on 6 different bikes, no issues
