Concur with the khu996 about the ABBA. Very easy to use on your own and very secure. Worth the money in my opinion.
Someone else on here bought one recently and mentioned the packaging, allow a couple of days to get it out of the wrapping.

yes that was me, definately allow a couple of hours to open it. I must say that it is the best, firmest and safe stand that I have ever had, The wife and kids are now happy because I am not asking for a hand to put it on the paddock stand!!

In my opinion i would use the 996/8 rear paddock stand..much more secure!

Andy,

I know the stand you mean, so probably showing my ignorance here, but do you know whether it fits the 749 as it only mentions the 998/748 as models it's designed for? I guess it probably does given the fact that I've got Marchenisi wheels and they must have a standard 'bore' through the centre spindle. Just want to make certain before considering parting company with cash !!

Thanks in advance for any advice mate.

All the "bore" from 748 998 to 749 999 are the same. The single sided stand will fit both the grey and later style swing arms of the 749 999 range!

Cheers Andy thanks for the help.
(BTW - how long did it take you to put it all back together ??)
