I am looking for a photograph of the bumpers of the Pit-Bull rear stand for the 1125R. Something with a little more detail than on Pit-Bull's site.

Thanks!

Well - I don't think so. I have the normal rear stands. American Sport Bike and Pit-Bull both say the rears are different for the 1125R.

If you have an 09 bike with the stock spools, you can talk to someone at Pit-Bull and order the spool stand they normally use for people with 240-300mm rear tires. It is a few inches wider than the normal spool stand so it will fit the 1125 rear end. The only thing that I had to do to make it work was use a cut-off wheel to remove the longer fork on the left side of the stand so it wouldn't scratch the swingarm. That way you can use the stand for other brands of bike.

I should have mentioned I have an 08 - so not spools. I also have the PB rear stand I bought for my M2 and Firebolt. The tabs on that stand are unstable due to the slope of the swingarm. So - trying to figure out if I can just fab something that can replace the tab/spool part on the normal PB lifts. I really don't want to buy a one vehicle only stand - especially since later versions of same vehicle have spools built into them!

Steve - does the lift part swivel? I assume so.

PS-
Some one else had posted they took their regular Pit Bull Stand and used a floor jack to spread it apart enough to space the width. How to keep it from slipping down the swingarm- should not be that big of a challenge I wouldnt think?
