The DP stand is a doddle to get the bike up as its very easy to lever up, however the one that came with the 996r is a waste of time! Its a Ducati one but the one without the bearing on the shaft. Its awkward to get up and down and as I discovered yesterday has an annoying and potentially dangerous quirk to it. As its not got a bearing your if you revolve the rear wheel to clean/lube chain etc the rear wheel and the bike gradually works its way of the stand! Was using it for the multistrada last night to clean the rear wheel and the bloody thing fell off, I caught the bike (just!) but its something to watch out for.
