I am in the market for bike stands for my '09 XB12scg I would like something very stable so I can wrench and not worry about the bike falling (especially on me). I would also like to be able to remove both wheels which is where I am encountering problems finding the right stands as there are no spools and the front forks are of different lengths.

Pick up a set of Pitbull stands from American Sport Bike. Shipping is a bit of a bitch, so make the order worth it : )

Another vote for Pit Bull. Google up discussions on them - well worth the money.

I'll second the T-Rex Front & rear stands. I've used mine daily (rear primarily)

Pit Bull. Heavy and maybe a bit overbuilt, never worried that a bolt might have come loose either...

Save a US job....

my first BadWeB post!!

http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/327 77/294076.html?1184981230

At the time, i was told they were built in the USA.
Since then, I think I have read they are shipped in from overseas. But i'm not 100% sure on that.

The ones I have are GREAT stands.

But not sure about the newer possibly made in china stands.

If I knew these were made in china or what not, i'd probably look closer at the USA built Pit Bull.

i'd say email em and see.
