Abba centre stand.
 
Has anyone bought or used one of these
on there 749/999. As iam fed up fighting with my paddock stand.
If so is it easy for front /rear wheel removal.

They seem expensive but it could be the best bike tool you could buy,fitments for almost any bike.
I've got one and it does my 916,ss,rvf- my mates vfr,gsxr and hayabusa with the relevant fitting bolts.
Its also more stable than a paddock stand.

I have seen them advertised for about £90 pounds + fitments. Which if you can remove front/rear wheels, is not bad.

Got one myself for the M1000.

Just like using a centre stand. Great for rear wheel removal - but if taking out front wheel I would need to put a jack under it too.

Very stable stand, much better than my seperate front & rear ones:D

ps - got mine almost new for £25!

I think it's going have to be my next purchase.

top bit of kit...
got a stand for life, all you need to do is change inserts for specific bikes--£10'ish.
got mine at ally paly £80 including inserts,,
if you can wait bet they do same deal at nec!!:)

I agree with everything that has been said.Well made and finished and rare these days to find somethig thats value for money.I can now confidently get the bike on the stand on my own without the fear of the bike falling over.
Buy one you won't regret it.

Seems to be hard finding a stockist here tho...

Anyone got any tips?

bazzer sps 19-Apr-2004 16:08

I ordered mine direct,when i get home i will find the address and phone number.I rang them at 3pm it was there the next day.Or do a search on google.

O.K. Who wants an Abba stand? I bought one at last years Bike show NEC. Hardly used, like new. Bought it for my 888 which I have just sold. £50 with 2 sets of inserts +p&p if interested. Otherwise I'll keep it until my next bike. I can take a digi pic if required.;)
