Hi Guys,

Which is the best/cheapest headstock stand to buy?

Want to be able to get front wheel off, and forks off my zxr400.

Cheers

I wouldn't recomend them as they get in the way as I borrowed one down in Plym and I wasn't impressed, and they seem kind of £££ you might as well get an Abba stand or do it the cheapo way ie stuff things under your engine and balance the bike on that or put some rope around the headstock and hang it from a (Strong) roof beam

Go here https://www.abbastands.co.uk/product_details.asp?id=35 buy it.

It will be about £140 for the kit, you will not regret it. It took me under 2 minutes to get both wheels stably off the Ground on my own.

It is definately worth it. PM me before you order though Wink
