Paddock Stand

[Dave]

Hi Guys

Having only just got my AT yesterday (2003 Black/Titanium) I need a little bit of advice.

The bike does not have a centre stand and I dont intend fitting one but I need to park the bike upright in my garage so need a paddock stand and the one I used for my old DR650 doesnt fit.

Does anyone have any idea as to what I should be looking for? Thanks

There's been a few discussions about these, here's a couple of links that may help.

Why doesn't it fit? The one that I had for my YZF600 was width adjustable is that the issue or the height?
Are you looking for recommendations on makes or getting the one you've got to fit?

you should definitely get one of these...

...then you can let us know if they're any good or not

Failing that, my bog standard Micron rear stand works OK for chain adjustments, etc., but it's not too stable (top heavy bike) and I wouldn't leave it parked like that overnight or anything.
