<![CDATA[Front/Rear stands]]>Any recommendations for a reasonably priced set of stands? Would like to find a rear one ASAP but need both for when winter rolls in.

He even checked back w/ me after a few weeks to see what I had to say about his stands. Excellent customer service.

but ran into a 'problem'...

the front's don't actually 'fit'.

I first thought the stand had spread some either at the coaters (with the heat) or in shipping but I measured it and it's right on redline's 8.125" spec. Obviously I can make them work, but it's a pain in the ass. Now it has me wondering if something is misaligned with my front forks. Credit goes to the rigidity of these stands though - I've stood on that front one multiple times trying to close the gap and my 220lbs bouncing on it hasn't moved it.

What about the 929 ethan?

Had 2 Hondas and 1 Kawi during that time, but it all started with Suzuki.

I have yet to figure out a way to run spools so I'll likely just order one of their other versions.

I really needed to have the bike moveable while on the stands because of my small garage, so thats why I went with Redline, and they work great. They're made of steel (I believe) so they're strong. Of course they're heavier than the aluminum ones out there. They are $118 each.

just how much difference can there really be? Granted I don't want something that's going to bend like a buddy's did, but aside from that...

edit: The redline commercial line is more along the lines of what I wanted to pay...

I've got no need to move the bike around on the stands so it's really not worth the extra money. Those pit bull stands look like they're even more than that...

You can put the bike up on the stands and just roll it all around with no issues. I'm honestly surprised at how stable the bike is while on the stands. If you would like to see how well they work I'll gladly show ya.

I have both. The rear is universal and the front is made for a kawi 750. It can be made to work with the proper sized stud for below your headtube
