krap. motorcycle flat tire. rear wheel bike stand?

well. feet officially held to the fire. ran over the perfect nail this morning.

looks like i cannot delay buying a repair stand any longer.

is Pit-Bull the top name in motorcycle service stands. i need the rear (for now). i have those tiny spools i can lift from (attached to my swingarm).

Kickstand down and floor jack under right foot peg works......A well installed plug is not recommended, but I've done a bunch over the years.........

Pit Bull is the best stand to buy. Also very handy for chain maintenance, cleaning, etc.

Thanks. Yea. I haven’t bought chain lube in years. I ride up to a Harley neighbor. He also had a triumph bobber.

I rotate it up on the side stand and he sprays. . He is good dude.

Now I’ll have to buy my own lube. I suppose.

Great idea!!
