Fz6r spool adapters

[viper523]

I was considering ordering the t-Rex spool adapters for a rear stand. I was curious as to which stand would work best with this. I was gonna order them at the same time

The t-rex racing stands are supposed to be pretty good quality, I'd go with those.

Any stand with spool adapters will work with it, save for the light-weight Harbor Freight stand which is a little too narrow. I have been using the Trackside front and rear stands from Cycle Gear — which appear to be identical to Pitbull stands — that can be typically found on sale for around $50 per stand.

Is there another solution other than T-Rex and still be able to use spools for rear stand? I have stands that currently use the paddle lift on the rear but I do have the spool attachment for the stand.

The bike has been on the stands for about 3 weeks now and today I noticed the rear tire was firmly on the ground. I'm assuming the bike is sliding back on the paddles because it was off the ground when I first lifted it.

I don't have anything against T-Rex, their adapters just seem a little expensive IMO. I bought spools before I realized the swing arm wasn't drilled and tapped for them.

I got them on my bike and they are great, got in an accident awhile ago and they got scuffed up but protected my bike some. yeah i had a similar setup before, i was doing some work on the bike and needed it lifted. but it kept sliding, because the swingarm is slanted. I think it was a good investment, it does suck how expensive they are but you can look at it like extra sliders for the rear.

I think I'm gonna get them. At least I won't worry about the bike falling over while I'm asleep

Low Profile Rear Motorcycle Spool Stand

I used this on the axle bolts before it was stolen. Should be wide enough for spools too.
