Default How often you guys put your F4i up on stand(s)

After every ride? Only when working on it? Only when not riding for extended amounts of time?

I picked up a LP rear stand today for short money (84) and was wondering what you guys do

I usually only put it on stands when working on it. I have a little one running around the garage so I dont trust to leave it on the paddle stands with him banging into stuff.

I do park it in the baxley chock everyday

I did a quick search on this and I was very impressed: youtube link

Where did you get yours and, if I can ask, how much did you pay?

I dont remember exactly, but I bought mine right from baxley, cant really get them any cheaper that i found.~$240 http://www.baxleycompanies.com/Sportchock.html

I really didnt want to spend that kinda cash on a stand, but my buddy insisted, especially since we use his trailer to haul the bikes. anyway, I never regretted it, one of the best purchases I ever made. throw that chock in the back of a truck, a trailer, and just throw a couple of straps on the back and your good. Like I said, I use it in the garage and never have to worry about my 2yr old climbing on it when I'm not looking.

I also have the T-Rex stands. They area VERY good deal. I got both for around $130. They are a simple assembly that takes about 2 minutes.
