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.


Thanks

Try one of these

or if you're feeling posh one of these

https://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.

I have a redundant rear paddock stand if you want it for a tenner

What bike, or what type of swing-arm single sided or double sided.

If you cannot place bobbins than first one from Oxford for double sided swingarm

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.

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.

I got ABBA stand complete one with wheels so I can move it around, but it’s not cheep.

Good for maintenance

:stupid:


Same here. Though my 125 was a little heavier than most being a cruiser :lol:


Never felt safe on the stand, wobbled about too much :shock:

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.

I would be too!! Just a slight difference :shock:

 

At first I thought I had ordered the wrong thing but having checked my bank account I have paid for the stand!
