opinions on swing arm stands/fork stands
http://www.motorcycleramps.com/motor...rear-stand.htmany experiance with these anyone? Do you get what you pay for with motocycle stands? Trust them enough to hold your bike up for the winter?

you do realize you can make your own stands for 15-20 bucks, right? cant weld? no prob. ill post up my how-to when i get back to oklahoma city. yeah you can buy the set of rex's for like 100 shipped or so, but im poor. and building it myself, i get the satisfaction of REALLY using something i make with my own hands. and since no one else touched them, if they break i know exactly whos fault it is.

I love my pitbull stands.
Plus they are made in the US, not some foreign country.

my opinion-I dont like fork stands, they about useless for working on the bike. get a stand that supports the front by the steering stem.

I like my vortex stands but they're like $160ish each. I just wish I had spools on my F4i because the bike seems to always slide on the rear stand and it makes it difficult to get it down.
