I know the majority of xx owners have and use a centre stand so this will be of no interest but a few of us still have removed the centre stand for certain reasons ( zorts mainly ) and there are a lot o non xx riding members these days :P

Wheel cleaning and chain lubing made easy. I have tried one of these out and mine is now on order. :mrgreen:

http://www.wheelmate.co.uk for further details,

and no i have no links to this product.

and yes I know its a busa in the ad....... :banghead)

its about £65.00 with postage.... :D

You could get a rear & front paddock stand for less than that...

Which would be far more use to you in the workshop/garage.

Good luck with your purchase mate (money to burn eh ?? LOL)

Cheers,

Rolfy

You having to resort to buying yer mates in now are ya Chuffer :roll) :mrgreen:





Seriously though dude, looks like a good idea! I got meself a padock stand at the NEC last year, but the trouble with those are that you really need someone to give ya a hand to put the bike up. At least with this thingy, you should be able to manage on yer ownsome.

I know this is an important issue for someone with no mates :mrgreen:

Sorry, cant help meself :D

I was going to get one to make cleaning the front wheel easier but it was only $60 USD. I'll have to see if I can dig up the link.

When our U.K. friends order things from The U.S. and elsewhere, do you have to pay VAT when you get it? Just wondering.
