Title: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: duc_fan on August 26, 2008, 11:43:09 AM Hey all,
I know someone had a frontstand for sale... dunno if it's still out there or not. I need a front stand next week, so I can take the wheels off the SS and haul them to Cycle Gear to have the new tires installed. Wondering if someone has one I can borrow, or if Mo or E still has one for sale... I plan to haul the wheels to CG on Tuesday of next week (I'm taking that week following Labor Day off), and they said it's a next-day turnaround, so I could probably have them back to you by Wednesday night, depending on when CG gets done and I can pick 'em up. I really need to invest in a frontstand, since I now have 2 bikes. I'd like one that holds it by the steering stem. Anyway, if someone with a stand available to borrow could get back to me, I am offering a six-pack of microbrew (your preference) in exchange for the use of your stand for a couple days. [thumbsup] Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: scott_araujo on August 26, 2008, 11:46:00 AM You're welcome to borrow mine for a few days. It's a PitBull that grabs the bottom of the fork, fine for tire swaps but not fork work. I'm in Lake O. I'll PM you my address.
You have a rear stand, right? Can't use the front without the rear. Scott Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: desmosome on August 26, 2008, 11:55:10 AM T-Rex front stand
Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: ryandalling on August 26, 2008, 12:03:50 PM I have a tripple stem pit bull stand with a couple of different pins... so if one of the pins fits... you can borrow mine... I will be using mine on Thursday while on the track....
speaking of the track... anyone wanna go and be my pit crew? Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: Tailgunner on August 26, 2008, 12:05:11 PM Of course you may. It was Toolfan who sold his PitBull front to me for $70.00. Obviously it will work on your moto and I'm told it's at the Morilla race garage. Grab it while he's around. -billy

By the end of the season my track bike will be the same color as my 848. Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand...

Dan, you can borrow Billy's or mine, just stop by and pick it up. Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: NEIKOS on August 26, 2008, 02:53:08 PM Tempting . . . I'm having a rough time at work lately . . . a day of relaxing might just be what I need . . .
I'll get back to you. Title: Re: Need to buy/borrow a front stand... Post by: duc_fan on August 26, 2008, 05:45:53 PM Wow! I should have expected such a response... but it's always cool to see the level of support in this group. [thumbsup] Thanks guys.
Scott is relatively near me in Wilsonville, and while a steering stem stand would be preferable, I'm not sure if Ryan will have the right pin. Scott, you can expect a PM sometime here shortly... We'll be adding Scott to the list of people to whom I owe beers. [beer] Thanks again, everyone! |
