Anyone who owns a motorcycle, I got some questions
-
harbor freight sells some cheap motorcycle stands. I personally bought pitbull stands. For the extra coin, they will last forever.
Usually they will require you to buy spools for the swinger, they are pretty cheap. Or you can go a little further and get GP adapters and a GP stand. Here is my setup with the GP lifters:

I personally don't care to work on a bike while on a kickstand. Older bikes with a center stand aren't too bad.
so what do you use?
I saw that you can buy front/rear motorcycle stands or a motorcycle jack.

motorcycle jacks really only work on non-sportbikes, or bikes that don't have the exhaust running under the engine.
Makes sense. I was wondering about that. I haven't picked up the ninja 300 yet. Should be doing it this saturday.
I posted 3 motorcycle stands off of browsing ebay for less than a minute. I'd like a better stand. I'd prefer not to get a harbor freight or equivalent.

I used an ogio drive in stand. It basically 180'd under the bike as you rolled it forward. Pretty slick. Also. Look into a condor wheel chalk. Super slick. And can be mounted anywhere and removed with a few pins. But then I again, I had a Supermoto, so you we used to load them into full size pickups with a few guys lifting them. Or just wheelie them onto trailers that didn't have ramps.

so my younger brother picked up his bike. He went with a 1989 FJ1200 as his first bike.
The seller i was going to meet flaked on me and sold the bike to someone else even though I had a check from my bank in her name and we had agreed on meeting and buying. So now I am looking again.
