Shiny and black looks sooo freaking good!

Shouldn't you get some rear spools instead of using the axle nuts?

Thx!
Actually there's some plastic piece that is supporting the bike ...
I'll see if I can get a clear picture of it!

Edit: picture added below...

I'm at work, and they filter many photo sources, so I can't see what you attached.... but there is are a pair of holes on the swingarm that you screw spools into. I'll attach a pic with them circled in red. The spools are fat on the ends and tapered skinny in the middle so they fit in the forks of your lift and won't slide off left/right. What you have seems to be an accident waiting to happen.

Anyone remember those Evel Knievel motorcycle toys from the 70's? You put the bike on a stand with a hand crank and wound it as fast as you could. When you stopped cranking the bike would launch out. Looking at these pics of a ninjette on a rear stand makes me think the same thing would be possible.... rev the engine way high, get that rear wheel really going and have someone tip the rear stand foward. Man, would that ninjette just fly out or what??? lol. :D

Thanks for the info, but shame you can't see the attachments. The paddockstand is not one with a fork :) Just plastic parts supporting the bike directly on the swing arm (?) :)
I'll send you a PM with a link to the attachment, maybe that works?

Edit: I have no clue about the Evel Knievel bikes, I guess I'm too young for that (being 21 and so truly a '90s kid :D )

There are other advantages to the spools but nothing wrong with your stand JusticeWH. Rock on :crazyloco:

I have a stand that came with both types of attachment ,I use the fork and spools on my bike but have used the pads on my friends cbr400 and on a cbr 250 works great.

don't worry about them in fact it takes less effort to lift with the swing arm pads than the spools

Yup nothing wrong with that stand now that I can see it close up. Neat, I've never seen one like that. Learn something new every day!!
