bursig stand
 

looks pretty decent, can't imagine pickin up the busa w/ that though, but then again they gotta pic w/ a b-king which is essentially the same bike

~$540 w/ the roller wheels

Its probably not the stand I would buy, because I could farbricate a much better one for that price, but at the same time, theres no reason it shouldn't be safe. The main forces (the legs running across the floor, and the weight of the bike) are opposing each other, and its made of steel, so its plenty strong to hold 600lbs.

Hmmm.....well, I like it but I would want those pins to be longer....:idk:

If the Nazi's build it, Americans will buy it. LOL

I'll build one myself or just wait till china comes out with their version.

That is what I was thinking.

for half the money you can get an Abba stand.

freind of mine is organizing a gb for them. Will be 480 for the stand and free shippin got his place in jersey. Only problem is you have to get it from his place.

I will prolly pass on one of these as I would rather get a stand/lift similar to what gasman has (just not as big or elaborate) but thats prety far down on my lis tof wants/needs right now.

Tom

Doesn't lift the front up.

I would still not spend $600 on a stand.

Yea... that's pretty much... This is $399 plus I have a 20% off coupon...:lol:

The Bursig would be very nice in cramped garages. That way you don't have a handle out both ends and still don't get flat spots. Unfortunately, it won't work with a lot of bikes. You have to have a hollow swingarm pivot and somewhere for the second pin to stop rotation.

Tommy... look at the kendon lift

What are you some kind of douche? You can get Handy Co bike stands for less than $100 front and rear. Anything more than that is inappropriate and excessive.:lol:

It picked up a busa at around the 2:50 minute mark.

question is, why would you not get at least the cruiser lift. They are $20 more, and more capacity... :idk:

the kendons look nice and harbor freight also has a nice one. Got christmas and ma berfday comming up so I will see who I can persuade to get me one :lol:

Tom

Cause there is a big difference between just hanging the wheels 3" off the ground and lifting the whole bike 36" up.

Good question.

The HF "lift" is garbage...

didnt know that, what have you seen/heard about their lifts? I know one person who has one and said its good so thats all ihave to go on.

I would prolly go with the cruiser stand anyway, my fiancees best freinds husband has a harley and I think I iwll be working on it in return for him helping with some home projects (hes a carpenter)

Tom

My neighbor has a HF and its garbage. Even look like garbage.

Could also consider a J&S Jack, other neighbor has one of these cause I helped his wife buy it for him. Realy nice. Very very stable.

Shit Tigger. Been there done that. The sears one is ok, but not very stable.

I guess you need to get the one with the best service plan :lol:

My take is if my bikes will be lifted a few feet off the ground I am making damn welll sure they dont come tumbling down because of inferior products.

I have given up on the handy stands for that reason. seen first hand them failing a few times including with my track bike.

Tom

F the service plan. You know I got the lift shit taken care of. I still have the sears jacks. Use it sometimes. But not much ever beats my actual lift.

The service plan was a little joke aimed at someone else from another thread ;)

Oh and it was sooooooo FUNNY!!!!:lol::lol::lol::lol:

hmm, alot of you guys are posting up lifts..........2 entirely diff things then a stand. and the lifts won't work w/ sportbike fairings in place and prolly not even if you took the fairings off.


the abba stand doesn't lift both ends of the bike up. nor is it movable.

and none are movable like this bursig stand.

I thought it was ;)

It's par for the course.

Tigger tells us how little to spend and Gas Man tells us how much to spend, with pics. Neither has anything to do with the topic at hand. :lol:

The bursig stand looks great. A little pricey but more convenient and compact than front and rear stands.

Plus, like you said, you can still move the bike while on it.

Nice elegant device.

It *might* work on one out of the four bikes I'm working on, but if the bike fits it certainly looks easier to use.

Only thing that would concern me is that it seems to have a fairly small footprint, and a top-heavy bike might be pretty easy to knock over onto the left side.

I'm still sticking with my engine hoist for flexibility.

Hey I thought that I was the douche here!!!

Who's the douche?

I'm so confused....

I guess we can be co-douches...
