Fish Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 OK on the search for a good rear paddock stand for helping with the maintenance of the bike. The bike only has a side stand so I'm in need of recommendations to lift the rear wheel.It doesn't have any locations to fit bobbins, so I'd have to get something from R&G is that is the option.ThanksFish Quote
bonio Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 Try one of thesehttps://www.oxfordproducts.com/motorcycle/brands/oxford/workshop/big_black_bike_rear_paddock_stand/or if you're feeling posh one of thesehttps://www.oxfordproducts.com/motorcycle/brands/oxford/workshop/oxford_premium_rear_paddock_stand/(look around for the best price, though)And you can fit bobbins if you want: see here Personally, I don't think I'd wouldn't bother, though. The paddock stands include hooks for bobbins and rests that you can use directly on the swing arm. Which is what I do on the DRZ and the VanVan. Quote
Guest Richzx6r Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 I have a redundant rear paddock stand if you want it for a tenner Quote

If you cannot place bobbins than first one from Oxford for double sided swingarm https://www.oxfordproducts.com/motorcycle/brands/oxford/workshop/big_black_bike_rear_paddock_stand/ Quote
bonio Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 What bike, or what type of swing-arm single sided or double sided.MT125 double-sided swingarm Quote
Marino Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 What bike, or what type of swing-arm single sided or double sided.MT125 double-sided swingarm Than firs link, Oxford you posted is the one, cheep and don’t need any other parts Quote
Cpt_Tact Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 If you have the money this is the best one out there for maintenance as you can lift the rear on your own easily and also lift the front with an attachement. https://abbastands.co.uk/product-detail.asp?item=superbike-stand&pid=1 I don't bother with with a rear padock stand anymore and just use this, it may take a minute or two more to get setup but it's worth it in my eyes.

Marino Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 I got ABBA stand complete one with wheels so I can move it around, but it’s not cheep.Good for maintenance Quote
James in Brum Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 I bought cheap eBay ones for forty quid the pair (front and back). My little 125 that I had bent them. Quote
Tiggie Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 Same here. Though my 125 was a little heavier than most being a cruiser Never felt safe on the stand, wobbled about too much Quote
bonio Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 I've got the Oxford Premium jobbie. It takes the Tiger fine, and I can wheel it about a bit too, as long as I don't go wild. With the VanVan and the DRZ, they both feel safe as houses. Only issue with paddock stands I find is it's tricky getting the bike kind of upright as you're lifting it. But with a 125, you can hold the bike up with one hand, no problem. Quote
