for those loking for stands

Good video. The rear is better than the one i have. Takes up less surface area wit hthe handle going the opposite direction!

the front stand loses the handle too!......wasnt expecting that from Brad......i love it!!!!!!

Nah the front handle stays. I've got that one too. It's just not as much of an impedence. The rear is very interesting though. Might have to trade up. That silver looks way better on yours than it does on mine. Hmmmmmmmm!

i preffer the old rear.
yes, it takes up more room, but its much easier to mount, IMO.

Im with you on the much easier to mount. That being said I actually bought one of those forward armed rear stands and wound up selling it on a local board to someone who kept his bike inside his apartment and found that stand useful for that because it takes up less room. I had 2 issues with it.

1. Kinda pain in the ass to use compared to the normal rear stand as you point out.

2. I keep my bike stored on my HANDY lift in my basement and that forward arm version's arm is to wide to work on the lift.

So I sold it.

That front stand is da bomb though.

I'm with ya. The forward handle rear stand is great. I would have liked to have picked up the removable handle newfront but it wasn't out yet.

agree and disagree......but i aint agree'ing nothin:th_SmlyROFL:

very nice indeed..

I've had that same rear stand for a year or two. Makes a 1 man trackday much easier comin off the track. Also takes up a lot less room in the garage and tire changes are easier. CRF keep practicin though Bigger bobbins help.

the ones i got are from pitbull......i wanted the alum one it seemed liked the delrin were bigger but did not like the idea on using plastic to hold my bike up......i have no problem getting it right it's just i am paranoid about gauging the fack outta the smingarm somehow which is possible if not careful

last night i cleaned the wheels and ahhhhhh so fa-king easy!!!!!....i dont know how i ever did it before.....well i pretty much got down on the ground which sucks balls.....i always wanted pitbull stands and when i seen these i said to myself fa-king ey i'm a get me some!!!!!!

I've got the rear stand and it works great! I keep my bike in a parking garage (living in manhattan...) and it definitely keeps the handle out of the way, but if it comes down to it and you need to get under the bike better you can always turn the stand around and use it like the old rear stand (handle out the back). pretty helpful, I want that front stand though
