No Stands? No Problem!
Well it was time to swap the rims for some race rubber that I need to put on. And just like every time I go to do it....Guess what?!! I don't have stands.
Why you ask...well because I can't afford them. So I just use a harley frame stand, sometimes a hydrolic jack for support and a tie strap. And Wallah! You have lift off !!!
.
So there's the bike with tires.........and here's the new hover bike
.
.
.
.
Here is the brain behind the operations.....a metal file to keep the bike vertical
.
.

Actually its mainly the bottom of the rear shock and the edge of the kickstand for that matter, supported by a piece of wood and the metal file.
Yea I need stands.

Which one you getting? The updated forward facing rear stand pitbull makes is pretty cool, saves space.

Chris,
I have an older Lockhart rearstand you can just have. I will put it in the trailer for you. Its set up for a lifting from beneath a square section swingarm like yours has. Maybe it can be modified for swingarm spools. Let me know if you want it.

The answer is.....maybe. If you want to "try before you buy"
stop by my place, I have almost all of the Pit Bull front stand pins.
R6 (’99 & ‘00) Std. Pin
R6 (’01 to ‘05), R6S (‘06 to ‘07) #8 Pin
R6 (‘06 to ‘07) #8S Pin

You know there's dozens of places on eBay that sell decent front/rear stand sets for less then $100.
