Newbie here...
 

Hi,

I pick up my first Ducati (748S) this weekend, and I can't wait. :D:D:D

A quick question for y'all....what is the best paddock stand to get?

Look forward to any help and joining the helpful folks on this board. See you all at a meet soon (I'm fairly close to Box Hill - ish!).

Cheers,

Ade.

welcome to the DSC !!!
there are plenty paddock stands about and they all work fine I have a Harris stand it seems to be put together better than most i looked at but it was more expensive though, look for one that enables you to rotate the wheel while its on the stand it's worth considering one for the front wheel as well

Best stand to get although more expensive is a Abba stand, this goes on the swing arm pivot and lifts the back end of the floor like a mainstand, put something under the engine and the front end can be lifted off the floor to.

By buying adapters can be used on different bikes as well, also very sturdy compared to a paddock:D:D

just wanted to welcome you mate
