[petehodges]

Hi all
Got an lc with metalax swing arm in
Any know where I can get a good padlock stand as last two I've brought are proper shit
They all move then start scratching up my all speeds or is there something else better out there cheers pete

I quite like these ones, don't flex much, but aren't a very high lift either, wont lift an RGV off the ground. So check measurements required.
Several makes like this around

You will need to somehow attach some bobbins to your swingarm tho'

You will need to get some threaded mounts welded to the bottom edge of the swing arm.

Where best too get this done I take I can't thread them in to the arm ?

Harris alloy. I've used everything else with varied results. We have six of them in the shop for customers bikes, says it all really, and you can get them with cups or bobbin hooks

Hi, I use the Biketek alloy paddock stand and it works great. I bought mine from 2wheeljunkie. I made a couple of threaded mounts, then marked out where I wanted them mounted and a local ally welder welded them on for £20 or so.
