Need to buy/borrow a front stand...

Hey all,

I know someone had a frontstand for sale... dunno if it's still out there or not.  I need a front stand next week, so I can take the wheels off the SS and haul them to Cycle Gear to have the new tires installed.

Wondering if someone has one I can borrow, or if Mo or E still has one for sale...

I plan to haul the wheels to CG on Tuesday of next week (I'm taking that week following Labor Day off), and they said it's a next-day turnaround, so I could probably have them back to you by Wednesday night, depending on when CG gets done and I can pick 'em up.

I really need to invest in a frontstand, since I now have 2 bikes.  I'd like one that holds it by the steering stem.

Anyway, if someone with a stand available to borrow could get back to me, I am offering a six-pack of microbrew (your preference) in exchange for the use of your stand for a couple days.  [thumbsup]

You're welcome to borrow mine for a few days.  It's a PitBull that grabs the bottom of the fork, fine for tire swaps but not fork work.  I'm in Lake O.  I'll PM you my address.

You have a rear stand, right?  Can't use the front without the rear.

I have a tripple stem pit bull stand with a couple of different pins... so if one of the pins fits... you can borrow mine... I will be using mine on Thursday while on the track....

speaking of the track... anyone wanna go and be my pit crew?

Of course you may. It was Toolfan who sold his PitBull front to me for $70.00. Obviously it will work on your moto and I'm told it's at the Morilla race garage. Grab it while he's around. -billy

Ry, when do need a pit crew?

I am just doing the PSSR track day on Thursday the 28th... if any of you wanna go out on the track too... please show up... I will have me a tent... but would like somebody to catch the bike when I get in from the sessions.  [moto]

This track think excites you huh?   [cheeky]

Damn straight it does. By the end of the season my track bike will be the same color as my 848.

Tempting . . . I'm having a rough time at work lately  . . . a day of relaxing might just be what I need . . .

I'll get back to you.

Wow!  I should have expected such a response... but it's always cool to see the level of support in this group.  [thumbsup]  Thanks guys.

Scott is relatively near me in Wilsonville, and while a steering stem stand would be preferable, I'm not sure if Ryan will have the right pin.  Scott, you can expect a PM sometime here shortly...

We'll be adding Scott to the list of people to whom I owe beers.  [beer]

Thanks again, everyone!
