Im having a hard time digesting $150+ for a bent piece of tubing with wheels mounted on it I was curious if anyone knows of a decent rear swingarm stand at a little more reasonable price?

 

ebay...I've seen ones go for like 40-50 bucks

 

Motorcycle stands are like jack stands for your car. While some may be expensive, they are higher quality, safer, etc.

 

Understandable safety concern but in this case I much less worried. Seriously, it's steel tubing with some bends and wheels to create the leverage. Not much can really go wrong is my thought. No hydraulics, no mechanicals to go wrong.

Ill check out Ebay. Thanks.

I found the set Im after, both front and rear for $59. Thanks again.

 

could we get a link to the purchase page for the rest of us that need some cheap ones too

 

Absolutely.

I've seen the really cheap ones bend with minimal use and also have the wheels break and/or fall off and collapse (making the bike fall over). I saw one guy lean across his bike and the rear bent.

If you can't go PitBull, T-Rex isn't bad.

 

Steel tubing correct, but poorly designed and welded with cheap metal is the part your forgetting. Ive had cheap stands, which bent, and warped with the bike on them. Almost fell, bought some t-rex stands. I feel better now.

 

thanks man

 

+1 on t-rex. I don't want my first drop to be from cheap stands
