Banned! You are cursing the whole South East division for the rest of the year.

Front stand is PB....rear is SUCK ASS...but i do not have spools...so just have to go with the standard..

The PB stand I'm referring to comes in spool, or swingarm lift.

depends on the bike cos the manner they fit is different.
on my R6 - it doesn't make a difference [ not to me anyways.. lol ]

+1 on the Brembo 19 x 18

Single best upgrade for the buck you can do.... IMO

It's not one of those things you put on and think that it's an improvement....
Grab a handful and you'll KNOW it's an improvement

Nice.

Also, I highly suggest this stand for a couple of reasons:
--very well made
--adjustable width
--will work as spool type stand
--will work as standard type stand
--will work when you crash your bike and rip the spool/s off your swingarm (see 1 line above)

Brembo m/c are nice but by far not needed top level racers much less a guy just doin trackdays

braking is just as easily done with a stock m/c and good brake pads

huh...i didnt know the rear PB stand was universal.....may have to invest in one of those!

 

[bigkaley]

This is the "universal" stand. http://www.pit-bull.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=PBMSA&Product_Code=F0028-000&Category_Code=rear_stands

It's called the SS Rear stand. It's a couple dollars more, but will last a lifetime and will fit any bike.

 

[lemondrop]

yep....may have to get this.....hoping to upgrade bike eventually....and would like to keep the rear stand
