Just for anyone that didn't notice. Crappy Tire has their sport bike stands on sale for $74.99. I can't comment on the quality but hard to beat the price. It also comes with spools.

I've seen 3 of them fail. Garbage!! Saving $50 over a good stand doesn't make any sense when you have a $1000 repair bill after your bike falls off the stand.

good to know. Where do they fail, is it possible to reinforce them so they don't fail?

I have a set and they seem ok. The front one is a little iffy but rear one is good.

I had these stands on numerous bikes. The rears are great, the fronts I had to modify as the angle the bike sits on them was way off plus they use a cheap allen head screw to hold up the bike haha (junk)

I cut a wedge out on each tube to get the right angle, then removed the allen screw and welded in metal bracket...works like a charm.

depends on the bike
they worked flawless on my 05 gsxr600

just replace the 2 'bolts' that go under your fork for the front stand and you're good to go

i no longer have a bike, i'll let the stands go for $50
