Lift Suggestions?

Momaru · June 10th, 2009, 11:45 AM

I'm getting ready to do my first oil change on my ninjette (second-hand) and could use some suggestions for decent stands. Not looking for armageddon-surviving jacks, just good ones as I've already spent too much this month on my new baby.

Here are some threads on different rear stands folks have picked up:

This is the one I have. It's a great quality for a very decent price.

While a good set of stands is much needed when working on certain aspects of the bike, they are really not needed to do an oil change.

^^^

I did my first oil change without one.

The Torrin stand from Northern Tool is no longer available.

Paul - I have the pit bull - if you have some spools, you can always just pop over to my place one day to try it out and if you think you want one, you can buy it then

Incidentally I just got some pitbull spools on the way yesterday since I'll likely need spools regardless whose stand I use. Thanks, I may hit you up on that offer. Gotta wait for my filter to come in though as I can't find anything in town but Fram.

What about a front stand?
I'm looking to get one.

I picked mine up from a local Kawi dealer here in Mansassas but noche should know where you can get them down there. Maybe Duncan Honda in Christiansburg?
