Does anyone use these? http://handyindustries.com/standpackages.asp I saw an ad and they are $99 front and rear. I wanted to make sure they werent pieces of crap before I bought them. If they suck are there any others out there that are cheap?

Yea if your doing some front tire work, the pit bull is the stand. Hows it going coup? Are you still riding or have you got it parked. I still havent gone to court yet. I have another court date the 22nd of this month but the lawyer is gonna continue it again. Later :wink:

I've got both pit bull front and rear and a set of handy. They both do what they were made for. Already had the handys for the 954 and when I bought the race bike it came with the pit bulls and a set of suzuki stand too. :wink:

I've got my pit bulls on the way, but indysuperbikes.com wouldn't give me the 10% forum discount...said it wasn't available on the stands. :roll:

Around $255 I think....Christmas present so don't really know exact number but whatever was on the website, no discount. Did you guys know Pit Bull is in Huntsville, AL? Got a call directly from them to confirm order and make a suggestion as to which stand would work best for me. Great ppl.

Truck- Last riding day was day before thanksgiving. Last sunday I took it through the subdivision but that has been it. My car has been running good so I havent had a reason to break it out in the cold. Its more breathtaking than the 54 is. I am thinking about painting it though and I am going to do something with the wheels, I am at least going to clear coat them or something where there not so hard to keep clean. Good luck with court whenever you get there.
I ordered the handy stands due to budget restraints but they sound like they should do the job. Maybe one day I can get some nicer ones if needed.
