Rear stands

[SouthGABusa]

I have been looking at rear stands and was about to order a pit bull stand. I then looked on the Suzuki website and found one that is made just for the Suzuki. Suzuki Cycles - Product Lines - Cycles - Products - Hayabusa - 2014 - GSX1300R - Accessories - Maintenance - 990A0-69006-BLK
I am at 9,500 miles and when I get to 10k I'm going to start doing all the maintenance myself. Can't do that without a stand. Any suggestions?

REDLINE ENGINEERING - SPORTBIKE FRONT & REAR SWINGARM PADDOCK STANDS

I use Pit-bull's, have for years, hear good reviews of the redline.

This Pit Bull is what I've used for years. Saves a ton of space to use, too.

Guess the only reason for the removable arm is incase you have not taken off the rear mud flap?

I have not found a stand I would trade my pitbull for. You can't wear them out and you can't break um.

I'd suggest getting the rear stand brackets that accommodate both rear spools and frame pads for use on bikes without rear spools. Cost a few bucks more but you most likely will have a use for the swingarm lift at some point when your friend comes over with an issue and no rear spools.

Just ordered that one. I told my wife before she went to bed that I was wanting one. Maybe she won't get pissed lol. When she was awake I was looking at cheap ones from harbor freight. Now I need to get some 8mm spools for it.

Crap, I hate agreeing with Tuf, but he's spot on here. I've tried the cheap ones, and won't go back. PitBull all the way.

I'm not sure..but is there a part# for a pitbull front stand that grabs the lower triple tree...so you can take the fork out? vs buying another dedicated stand?

The easier solution for removing the forks or steering stem is to raise the rear with a stand and then get a piece of 2x4, put it on top of a scissors jack to protect your exhaust pipes and lift the front using the jack.

I know that hurt...but I'm in too..Pit Bulls are the stuff for stands and restraints.

i use pit bull stands as well but a few years ago i did try a set of t-rex stands and there good for the money but not close to a pitbull

Sounds like i made the right choice. My pit bull should be here by the end of the week.

Been using the redline industrial stands since '06. I do all the maintenance. Stands are flawless. Enjoy the pitbull.

Just wanted to share this info. In January of this year, Pitbull attended the Progressive International Motorcycle Show in DC and had the rear stand at $130. They included the removable handle as a show upgrade for free and on top of that, the Pitbull rep offered both the front (with convertible triple tree attachment) and rear stand for $320 if purchased together. Unfortunately I had just made a big purchase and could not afford it at the time. Maybe next year.

I really like my Redline Industrial Stands. They do not appear to be available any longer, they do not have them on their site nor are they a site sponsor here any longer.

New pit bull. I'm happy with my purchase.

 

[dadofthree]

That's all that matters

 

[Giver of Doom]

I use the same stand for the rear or the front.....

 

[SouthGABusa]

The real spools I ordered are a little small. Where can I get a wider set. The first time I used the stand it rubbed on the top support. Im thinking that if I had a bigger spool that I wouldn't have this problem. Been searching and have not been able to find one.
