motocross stands
 

evening all.
has anyone used a motocross stand on their XT with standard twin fannymolds? I ask as I have no bash plate and wonder about the strength of the downpipes vs jacking the beast up...
any help/opinions appreciated :D

I have wondered about that as I've no bash plate but why not use a paddock stand I got mine from ebay australia

Be aware that most MX stands are only rated to about 150kg.

Hi, I've faced the same problem. The largest capacity MX stand I could find was 170kg, not quite enough. I bought a cheap hydraulic stand with a capacity of 680kg. It was only $150 Australian. Works well, the underslung pipes seem OK. Having said that the first lift was VERY slow & careful. No damage.
The only problem so far has been the rubber pads on the lift have melted from the heat of the headers.
So no worries so far. Good luck with yours.

Feck just looked on uk ebay and found 2 paddock stands from dorset for

?140 with free postage...you got to love ebay
