would it work on other bikes though as it seems to use 2 "bolts", unlike say ABBA stands which use the swingarm hole

Works with a few other bikes, Gixxers, CBR, XZ, R1 etc. Over £300 to buy though. Shocked

yeah even older cbr 600


to be fair if you had a race bike and choping and chaging wheels all the time etc it looks so hassle less

OR

say you had to get it into a tight spot in the garage / shed etc with the casters it looks pretty decent

but yeah the price is abit nuts. but if you own a exotic bike then you can ushually aford nice tools / bits of kit.

I can't see how this stand will be as stable as the normal paddock stand.

That is awesome!!

Theres not much room in my garage, so when I take the wheels off my bike to get the tyres changed, I have to leave the bike outside!

This would be a great alternative to just wheel the bike in the garage on the stand!

There was a similar one that was posted around before - someone on MCN ninjas mentioned that despite the videos, it was actually worryingly unstable when on the stand.

I like the idea of these: https://www.on-bike.com/

Axle stand on the opposite side to the side stand, then under the base of the frame on my ZX6.

I think the main focus of this one is that you can wheel the bike around, and turn it around with ease, something you can't do with axle stands Wink

I just use paddock stands at the moment, but I'm seriously contemplating one of these, but as G said, stability is the worrying things.
I would like to see some legs on the other side to make it more stable.

Reading on some of the Duc forums they seem to be pretty solid. Some people had concerns for the mounting point on the bike but no problems so far

Or just save yourself 400 euros and buy a pair of axle stands, not as manoeuvrable but a lot cheaper!
