angryfarang Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Guys, I'm looking to remove the wheels on my hornet. Looking over youtube videos, the proper method is to use a paddock stand front and rear to support the bike. Any ideas where I can get a set from? Cheers.

angryfarang Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Are they a universal size Wana? I'm based down here on Samui. So will need to get a set posted down. Will check out 59bike - thanks for the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
commande Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) Most bike shops that sell parts for big bikes have them available. If you need to have both the front and back of the bike off the ground at the same time and you want to only use stands then you will have to purchase 2 stands, 1 for the rear and another for the front with the long nose adapter (as I call it). Not expensive, you can get a DPM stand (Dynamic Power) for around 500-600 baht for the rear and the front with adapter will cost around 900 baht in the Bangkok area. You will also have to purchase the a rear set of stand adapter spools that screw into the back of the bike for the rear stand to lift the bike, average cost 200-600 baht depending on how fancy you want them to look. Stands are great to have around when your doing maintenance. Edited April 27, 2012 by commande Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commande Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Commande - what does the adaptor on the front stand? The front stand is a head lift stand - you can see a picture of the DMP S-Spec Head Lift Stand at the following link http://www.motorcyclegear.com/parts/track_and_garage/motorcycle_stands_and_lifts/dmp/s_spec_head_lift_motorcycle_stand.html - Note: I have nothing to do with that site nor do I suggest you purchase anything from them. This is just a reference as you can get these here in Bangkok just about everywhere. The stand actually lifts the front of the bike by placing a bar between the front forks and lifting via the center level triple tree brace.

Will check out 59bike - thanks for the info! mine is fully adjustable to suit most mid size bikes but i doubt it could lift a hayabusa or a goldwing ,i think they cost about 1900 http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/product_images/bike_tek_red_front_paddock_stand.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezy1801 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) I know this can't be bought in Thailand but if you can get someone to take it for you from outside Thailand I would highly recommend an Abba stand. I took one with me from the UK (managed to fit it into a big case) and I am glad I did. Can be used without the help of someone unlike the Paddock stand. Its great for lubing the chain and also for keeping stored for long periods of time. http://www.abbastand...gallery.asp?m=7 Edited April 28, 2012 by dezy1801 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Brian I screwed up this post, guys. Sorry, but the stands are actually 1,700 each. Still a good price for quality stands. Do they fit a CBR 150R (Year 2012)? Do i need Bobbins for the stands and where to mount the Bobbins on a "new" CBR 150? Or are there better solutions for a CBR 150? Sorry, i am a total noob to paddock stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Have a DMP stand and can lift the Versys no problem, I use two scissor jack to raise the front after the rear is supported, so back and front are off the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I'll get myself aftermarket triples and have the pin adapter capability. I've wanted aftermarket triples anyway, as the factory ones, lowers especially, look like crap. Sent from my iPhone 3 using ThaiVisa app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
