Hey everyone,
Just wondering which rear paddock stands you guys use with your ZXR's? I've got R&G bobbins which seems to make the overall dimension too wide for the stands that I have tried so far.

Do you have the bobbin hooks for the stand?

I have a Harris one with bobbin hooks, like said above. You can get a normal paddock stand to fit, it's just a bit of a faff and it's much easier to just use one with bobbin hooks

The stand I tried (Moto GP one piece stand) had bobbin hooks but wouldn't fit because it was too narrow.

I'd be curious to know the difference between a "normal" paddock and one with bobbin hooks.
I've never seen a paddock stand that can't be made to fit. Is there something special or unique about a MotoGP paddock stand.
Please do share some photos

By normal I meant one that comes, as standard without buying a separate set of bobbin hooks, universal lifting cups. I just hoped to save myself a bit of time by not having to specify that point. Although obviously I have failed...

I use a Moto gp style paddock stand with bobbin hooks, yeah it is on th tight side but I just prized it open a bit more as there only made of Ali sheet plate.
I also pushed the bobbin hooks as close as possible to the stand Attachment to the point I had to tighten up first and get the hammer on them to hit them flush. I know it's sounds a bit agricultural but it works for me.

were the hooks on the inside or outside of the paddock stand?

The hooks were on the inside of the stand and weren't designed to be used on the outside. I can't imagine there is anything unique about it I don't personally have any photos because I sent it back when it wouldn't fit but here's a generic picture from the internet- http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/product ... d-rear.jpg. Fair enough if that works for you Leey! I'm not brave enough to take a hammer to something that's intended to hold my bike lol.

Hey your stand is of a different design to mine mine was a sheet ali style like the 1 pictured in my bike project thread thought you had the same type.

Ahh right fair enough. Does no one know a brand/model stand that fits the ZXR without having to be modified? I'd really appreciate it if someone could let me know

Harris. I did say...

In fact, here's a link: http://www.harris-performance.com/cgi-b ... dREAR_2d02

I have a standard generic £15 one from ebay.

My bad yeah you did say, lol. The Harris stand seems pretty decent I'll have a go with that and see how I get on. Cheers for all the input everyone
