i had one of those and it worked well but i got rid and got the front stand that goes under the head stock which is so much better

If you ever want to take the front end off your bike (e.g. service forks) you'll want a headstock stand. And then you'll have two stands for mostly the same task.

Anyone car to explain headstock stands as I have never used one, are they a universal fit for bikes ?

[CarlosCBR]

A peg sits in the hole under the headstock. Pretty much it. Very handy.

I had one very similar to that, and this happened...

Fucking thing buckled because it couldn't take the weight of the Hornet

Grumpyguts you c

Was that a rear one that buckled?

Mine is very similar but red, and holds my hornet up just fine. I've also ordered this front one.

It wasn't because you had it on the swing arm with loads of shit undone was it? I'm intrigued how that happened!

...because it was cheap, it twisted as I lifted the stand up and it gave
