can you use a bobbin paddock stand on an 03 999. there are no threads to screw into.
Has anybody tried a reverse bobbin stand with the hooks on the swing arm and bobbins on the stand.

No you cant........but you can use a single sided swing arm type from a 996-8..............i do! much easier to use than the crappy 999 one!

Yes but,no but,...........thats ok untill you want to remove the wheel.
The DP stand for 03/04 bikes has rubber cups that locate under the swingarm near the chain adjusters.Someone on here also used a Micron stand with success.

Try an Abba stand. Its a simple 1 man operation to lift the wheel with no danger of the bike falling.
