Stands......What and Why?

[fpzx10]

Pitbull FTMFW!!!!!

They are made about 70 miles from me. I got a great deal from www.sportbiketrackgear.com

I have a Vortex and a Pitbull rearstand. Both are good. To be honest...I actually like the Vortex one better. I paid $100 for the Vortex new and $100 for the Pitbull used.

I've been thinking of selling one or the other and using the $$ to buy a front stand.

Thanks for everyone's replies. I think I will probably go with T rex. From the pictures they seem of good quality, and both users on this forum are happy with them.

I have a T-rex set for the SV...
Have to invest in another set for the 1125 now... not sure what i'm going to go with. Gotta check to be sure the swingarm will be solid enough on the 1125, as there are no spools for that.

That's one thing I don't like about the 1125R. The swingarm looks way too lightweight. Let us know how that goes!

oh the swing arm is heavy enough... just no mounts for spools, so you have to use the "standard" style stand.

Gotta try my current T-rex to be sure I'm ok with how it all works.

"standard" stands would freak me out. How do they not slide?
