How do I install a swingarm spool on a 95 cbr 600f3
I'm looking to install a swingarm spool to use a jack to lift my bike as when I bought it, it didn't have the rear stand. There's no hole to bolt it onto the swingarm and I'm not going to drill a hole. I have seen swingarm end caps where the chain adjuster bolt is that allow a spool to attach but can't find one for a cbr 600 f3 just smaller cbr 250 and 300 do you think one of those would work? Does anyone know where I can get one of these caps that is specific to the 600 f3? Any help would be appreciated thanks. I'm including a pic of the cap I'm tal

Reason: Grammatical
Just drill a hole and install a nutsert and bolt it to that, the swing arm is rigid enough to handle it. Just make sure you have the proper tool to install the insert. Trying to do it without is a huge PITA
I've never seen caps like that before, so good luck finding them. You could always take the bike to someone that can weld on mounting tabs for spools to the bottom of the swing arm. Or find a rod that'll fit through the rear axle and thread spools onto that, this way won't allow you to remove the rear wheel though.
