i got the ones from ebay/fly-n-cycle just like 50dro, they work great on my scg. i've used them a few times and they are pretty stable. were cheap too...

What's everyone prefer? Fork lift or pin lift? Of these suggested exactly which models is everyone using? I would like a set but dont wanna spend a fortune. There's a lot of models on these sites listed. What's everyone using?

Tripple tree/pin on the front and swingarm lift in the rear with tthe option to use a slider lift in the rear also. the stands that alow you to lift the bike via the grooved sliders are nice but serv no purpose other than lifting the bike off the ground. If your looking to remove the wheels you need a swingarm and tripple tree/pin lifts.

well since i just lift the rear and don't use spools, harbor freight! much better ones out there but for just jacking the ass end off the ground, don't need nothing overkill!

I wanted to ask if anyone here knows if this stand would fit?

I already purchased them before thinking "hey, let me check out buellxb forums" and regretfully they have already shipped so i cannot cancel the order. I bought the m6 rear and m1 front stands with the sale they have going on.

My only worry is if they fit on a 2008 xb9sx. Mainly for mait, and winter storage to keep wheels off the ground. Thanks for any input you guys may have.

bought these stands and was extremely impressed. Came with attachments for rear spools, and swing arm lift. Came with fork and top head tube lift. Well built, and well priced. Pics to come.

I have the same ones as 50-Dro for both my bikes, they aren't the nicest things, but they work fine. I dont store my bikes on the stands, just use them for maintenance, and they work just fine for me.

I bought Pits front and rear and wish I hadn't spent so much. Oh well, live and learn.
