M/C Lift and Stands

[Commuta_Busa]

I think yo're out of luck. You will need to decide up front before raising and strapping the bike if you will use the front wheel chock or a front fork or stem stand.

You could permantly mount the front pitbull stand to the lift by welding some mounting tabs to the lift and remove the wheels.

You could replace the front chock with a clamp like this one. After you get the bike on the rear stand you would have to remove the clamp, about a dozen bolts, and use your front stand. A bit of a pain but it would be doable with just one person.

I've got a clamp that came with the lift. Have not tried it, I just can't see it holding the bike, it's just two small plates.

I like the bench with the vice/clamp type front clamp.
(bike will stand up but doesnt feel REAL solid,
but I always add a rear stand every time)

To remove the front ends I just back the bike on and clamp the rear wheel instead.
Originaly the clamp wouldnt open enough for my Busa or B-Kings fat rear tyre
so I redrilled two holes and can now move over the clamps fixed side.

Cheap lift, cheap stand. Had a Busa/King/GSX11 on it 24/7 for the last 4 years
and gets a lot of use. Solid as a rock.
Any bike, backwards or forwards, is a one man operation.
