As bob says can't see enough detail from the photo. But from what I can see it looks like it's lifting from under the rear axle. If that's the case, you can't change the tire with that stand.

Glad to see that the Pit Bull rear stand for the 1125R is out... thanks for posting!

1125rz,
Is that a Pit Bull front stand also? As everyone's said can't quite make it out.

Cool pics Bob.

I wondered about HOW they'd capture the back of the swigarm to keep it from sliding back along the slope of the swingarm.

Pitbull puts a lot of thought into these stands.

Have you actually tried removing the rear tire while on that stand? is there enough clearance?

wish we could upgrade to the 09 swingarm that has the spools on it.

Just do like Neil(Ccryder) and epoxy a piece of square-stock to the underside.

I wonder if the swingarm pads/parts will be available as an accessory. I already have a Pit-Bull rear stand.

Thanks posting those pictures of the new stand 1125RZ.

Do you ever stop cleaning that bike or does it just have 5 miles on it?

Hmm, just remember to loosen the pinch bolt before using the stand. There might be room to snake a wrench up from the bottom.

There may also be the issue that was noted about how far the stand goes on the inboard side of the swingarm.

Just to let you know, I called Pitbull and the swingarm pads do not retrofit to an existing stand. The 1125R is a stand alone product.

Stewadi, I must have called Pit-Bull right after you. The guy said that I was the second person in the last hour to call.

It sucks I have to buy a new stand. I have the dark horsemoto sliders that are also spools. But they are no help for rear tire removal. So I am going to buy a rear stand sometime this fall. I am also going to get the conversion kit for the front so that I can take a stab at setting up my own suspension.

I would buy the stands right now but the $225 I plan on spending will buy me another track day. You have to have your priorities straight

FWIW, for less than the price of one Pit Bull stand you can get both the T-Rex stands. Granted the PB are finished a little better but, not that much.

We have the Pitbull stands for the 1125R now. It's a nice stand, a bit pricey, but it sure works well to pick up the bike securely. I have several stands here in the shop, and I've picked up the 1125R with a couple of them and did NOT feel secure doing so. It fell off of my forward arm Pit Bull stand once. But the 1125R pit bull stand is very secure.

See http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/16131.html

As a side benefit, the Uly has a very steep swingarm angle and has never been as secure on a pitbull, or any other, conventional stand, as I would like. It was manageable by keeping the side guides in close to the swingarm sides, and using the belt guard as a slide stop. But the 1125R stand works great on the Uly as well, with the only caveat that you have to loosen your pinch bolt prior to lifting the rear with a Uly.

Can anyone please tell me what the Pit Bull front stand is that's in the first post of this thread?

Thanks,

I have both Pit Bull stands, front and rear, and I got them from American Sport Bike.
The front stand needs a #2 pin to fit into the bottom of the steering stem.
I've changed the rear tire with no issues. As stated in previous post loosen the pinch bolts first.
Very stable!!

Then all you need is the #2 pin to remove the wobbles...

I bought the new rear stand and love it. Pretty stable and it doesn't slide forward. Nice. Thanks all for pushing this with Pit Bull and posting.
