Having a tough time visualizing what you are referring to.

so you'll have to spring for the newer stand with the single arm to the front.

Roll your rear tire up on a block of wood or stacked cut pieces of card board, whatever it takes to elevate your rear tire 3/4" to 1" off the ground. Then your Pit Bull will work fine!

I guess I will have to until this weekend to manufacture one out of fiberglass like I did in the Girls 05 1K

Plenty of good advice here!

I personally did the piece of 2X4 under the rear wheel. I didn't want to buy a new stand, to replace the one I just bought. I also didn't want to remove the dopey little tail that extends under the license plate.

Here's what I did, and it works pretty well: I ordered two shims from Pit-Bull for adapting the stand to fit a CBR929 (asymmetrical swing-arm). They cost $7.95 a piece. pit-bull.com

The result is that they extend the lift forks just enough to allow me to grab the spools without mutilating the tail. It works, but it is still a close fit.

Just spoke with their tech support. they said that this happend with the ZX-14 also. Most will opt to remove it so they wont change the stand anytime soon. I told him that I dont recall having this on th 99, 01, 05 Busa, but that was the first thing that I customized so Iduno! I will try the board trick when I get home, seems to me the bike leans over a bit more than all my others, or maybee its me!

That is hysterical! Quite the talent!

Sounds like it's time for a shovel mod

Funny Stuff!

Guess if i were paying attention I would have realized that you were talking about an '08. The rear fender sits that low, huh? Yeah, guess you could get a new stand or find something to elevate the rear wheel before using.
