Advice on a pair of paddock stands

[pumilio]

Anyone offer advice on a pair of paddock stands? I want a pair for the fireblade but I have no idea where to begin shopping. Ideally I'd like a set that I could use on other bikes too - are "universal" ones really universal? Good brands and sources?

Thanks in advance!

get an ABBA STAND as you will be able to do the front forks.

there around £80-£100 with the fitting kit.

i have the standard front and rear stands and your a bit limited service wise

Better off getting some bobbins and a stand to suit for the back much safer and easier to use.

agreed, but for just taking it off and using it on another bike....spose you could get bobbins for both bikes

Thanks for the suggestions all. I ended up ordering an Abba superbike stand kit. I should be able to use the front lifter on the tiger as well!
