Motocross bike stands

[B5234FT]

What style do people use? It's purely for garage use, initially on a 125 but hopefulyl ultimately on a bigger SM.

I've seen a few build threads using this style:

But the idea of a lift is tempting (unless its completely uneccessary?

What would folk recommend?

Cheers

I used the style like the 2nd one on both my mx bikes. they work great and saves lifting the gits onto the stand. For that extra £2 it's worth it I'd say.

It is if they work ok and dont end up just being an overly heavy fixed stand Is yours fairly easy to use/reliable/not broken I assume?

iv got one of the ones in the 1st link, have cut a hole in the top so i can drain oil whilst the bike is sat on the stand

I bought 3 second-hand stands similar to the one in your second link, though the ones that I bought have swivel tops so that the bike can be turned if necessary whilst on the stand. I paid around £15 for each stand and they appear to be better quality than the one in your link.
If you're not in a big rush, you will probably drop on one on The Bay. This one looks promising:-

Yeh they work great. Not had any problems and not that heavy.
