Yes its very secure when on the paddock stand I use an aluminium Motrax stand with adjustable claws.

Is that a grey swing arm?

How did you fit them, what was used etc...

Thanks

I prepared 2 lengths of aluminium bar of 20mm diameter with a 8 x 1.25 thread, 25mm deep. I then milled out the arm to accept the bar. as the arm legs are not symetrical one cutout is deeper than the othe, but just measure from the axle centre down.

I then welded the bar into place, lick of paint, job done.

I have used an Abba stand on my previous bike and it fits my 999s ok as well , very stable and worth the money .

ABBA stands are ok if you are working on the bike, but it takes 2 to 5 minutes to get in place. Whereas a paddock stand, 5 seconds and walk away.
