1. Rear stand (spooled or standard)....$118 :yesnod {retail....$150}

2. Front stand (fork style)....$128
(triple tree style)....$135 :yesnod

3. Shipping....$10 @ each stand :yesnod

4. Package deal....$260....(add $8 for triple tree style).....:thumbup ...shipping included !!

5. Spools (if required)....$14....:thumbup

Most of you may already be cognizant of the fact that Mike has superior service, flexible prices, and FREE advice! Mike is known to steer you in the right direction regardless of his monetary outcome. Give him a shot.

Good luck. Ride safe.

Enlighten me would you...why would I need spools? I don't have a stand now and wa convinced that I should get the Pit Bull stand.

ScorpionR1
08-27-2002, 11:21 AM
Ok Mee-agi son....:lol

Spools are simply for ease of lifting and sturdiness. In my opinion, they provide better stability and a rigid hold on the bike. Nevertheless, both options are great. Spooled or standard. In fact, I believe you can get the attachment to switch it if you change your mind at a later date.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me at: ScorpionR1@email.com

Ride safe Wolf. :thumbup

SO how does this group buy stuff work? I order through McCoy Motorsports, and once X number of people order, they order from the Manufacturer, or If I order the both today, they will ship now?

Thanks Buddy:thumbup

Dude which front stand are we talking about? There is the standard one that lifts from the fork legs and the one that lifts from the trees. Let a brother know:lol

Also if you go to www.kneedraggers.com they have rear stands(either type) for 122 and front stand fork type for 134 and the tree type for 144. It sounds like Mike is giving us a deal on the front stands, but not so much on the rear.

Gertner:

Another good question. Well, I set up this deal to make it quite simple for everybody. The sooner we have 10 stands, the sooner we can get them out to people. All you have to do is simply call Mike @ 606-432-1556. Mention that you are responding in reference to the group buy ad I posted today. Mike oftens gets bombarded by a myriad of info., so please remind him. :lol

I am sure we can get 10 folks to sign up for this great group buy. I am all about Pit Bull. I have heard nothing but the best about these stands. Professionals say that they are the strongest stands on the market.

:thumbup

Well, give 'em a ring. I am sure you will be satisfied. :yesnod

Tommy.....

You are my boy & all...and we ride together, but with all due respect, please keep in mind that Knee Draggers also charges $25 for shipping !! :eek: Nuts..!!

Mike has lowered the price of the stands to beat the competition, satisfy the riding community, and sacrificed the cost of shipping as well. :yesnod Sounds good to me. :yesnod I know you agree Tomboy. :thumbup

In essence, you are saving at least $20 per stand. And don't forget, when you order both stands, the shipping is FREE !!

Good luck fellas..... :thumbup

guys,
I already have both the front and rear stands, so I figure that I'll share my experience.

Pit Bull stands are very very sturdy. I've used other makes and they are generally flimsier.

I've used the rear stand in both spooled and non-spooled configurations. My recommendation is to put spools on your bike or get the swingarm sliders that will function as spools. It will be much more secure.

As for the front stand, I recommend getting the one that lifts the bike from the tree. Why? Well, it makes it easier to service the forks and adjusting fork position relative to the triples. If you don't plan on using it in this fashion then I suppose you are better off saving the ~$20 premium that it'll cost ya.

Regardless, the price that ScorpionR1 has listed are pretty good for brand new Pit Bull stands--definitely cheaper than what I paid for mine.

Thanks for your input brother! That's the great thing about this riding community. We all help each other out and get the best prices. Other sites won't even let you do that ! :no

Well, I am sure these fine riders on this forum will appreciate your personal experience with Pit Bull stands. I think they are getting the best for their $$$. :thumbup

and by the way, look at this post below...i love how we try so hard to help each other and cyclemall.net dissed us hard...!!:( :no

after i responded to cyclemall.net's diss, shortly thereafter, the thread was deleted...!! how odd...!!!

08-28-2002, 11:51 AM
Yeah...so much the better. I mean, I just posted that I thought it was rude to diss your group buy and he's calling me thin-skinned...like I give a rat's ass what some yuppie fack in Orange County thinks. I just posted 'cause I just hate to see dealers get petty when someone like you is trying to do people a solid...

I mean, if you can only offer 10-20% off on something 'cause you're not as deep, big deal. But he shouldn't come along like he's saving the friggin world...'cause he's not. Wow...11% discount...someone catch me, I'm swooning.

Ah well...

I hear ya ! People should consider this deal. :thumbup


Paulie:

Did you happen to save that post? Is there anyway to retract that thread? Did you see my response where I supported your comments? He actually called you a newbie !!! Did you see that ? :no

Ok guys, let's do this! Mike has great service, friendly attitude, and a healthy diet for your wallet. Call all your friends!! As per the man Mike, we need to roll 10 units out the door. Let's hussle.........:yesnod

AraiR1
08-28-2002, 05:02 PM
The sooner we get 10 PAIRS....front and rear......they will be ordered and shipped. The guys that order the pair, will get shipped sooner than the individuals that order singles. He said that he is gonna order the first sets on Monday maybe.......

ScorpionR1
08-28-2002, 05:11 PM
Arai:

You are totally right Sir, the sonner we order, the better! But, just to reiterate a point, we DO NOT need to order 10 sets/pairs. We simply need to get 10 stands out the door. Now there's honesty! If Mike wanted the sale, he could have said 10 sets....but noooooooooo.......he said merely 10 stands !

So let's hussle people. :thumbup

Good luck. :thumbup

Well, I just picked up the pair. Thanks for putting this together guys :thumbup

BTW, Go with the Tripple Style Front, much better, more stable, and you can work on your forks.

Also, shipping on these badboys are normally expensive b/c of the size of the boxes they come in. Free Shipping? Get the biggest they have :thumbup

I've been using Pit-Bull stands for well over a year and a half now, I remember ordering them direct from Pit-Bull cuz not too many other retail outfits carried them at that time. Anyway the stands are all they're cracked up to be. They're really strong, very easy to use, I soak both whenever I wash my bike and there's not a hint of rust (*cough* LP *cough*). When I got mine I paid well over 300 bucks for both (I have the reversible rear and the forklift-non triple tree front). So this definitely is a good deal. Do yourselves all a favor and get some spools, either pit bull or any other type, it's much easier hoisting the bike by yourself and you know you're "locked in" and won't have any probs. It's easy to scoot the bike back and forth into position when it's on both stands as well. I only wish I got the triple tree kind front stand but I believe there's a converter attachment that I can still get to be able to raise it by the triple. Anyway this is a great price, can't beat the free ship, and an all around great value, I just wish this was around when I got mine. Good luck:thumbup

Ok, I just got off the phone with Mike. He said that we only had 5 people taking advantage of this one.
I am guessing that I make six. He also said that he would be charging the cradit cards on Monday but I failed to ask if they were even open on Monday and that maybe he meant Tuesday. Whatever...

Just for the record, I've ordered my parts! :thumbup

Guys, I've bought from mike and Ive bought from cycle mall and I had great service in both places. I would just like to point out the rear stand is not that great of a deal. You can get it through through cycle mall for 129.00 with shipping included. I reiterate, I had no problems with Mike and I will order from him again but his starting prices are higher than cycle mall on most things. I also had more trouble getting Mike on the phone than Frank. Just my .02.

ScorpionR1
08-29-2002, 04:20 PM
Spanx..

Did you..or did you not order from Mike yet? Sounds like you don't like his level of service. I think you would feel differently after reading yeseterday's post that Frank put up. Not many people were too happy with Cyclemall's unprofessionalism in the post. Hence, why he deleted it immediately. The non-functional link is on the previous page.

Good luck ! :thumbup

PS: Mike's rear stand deal is $128 with shipping included.....!! If we are going into price wars, he is still $1 cheaper. But that is not the case here. His level of service is unsurpassed. Bottom line. :yesnod

Spanky R1
08-29-2002, 05:26 PM
Ya, I liked his level of service. I had some questions about the stuff I ordered the first time and he was very patient with my dumb ass. I will order my stand from him tomorrow morning. I missed Franks post so I guess I'll never know. Seemed like a nice enough guy on the phone.

ScorpionR1
08-29-2002, 07:32 PM
Spanky:

I never doubted your loyalty or intellect. You just confused the hell outta me in that last post. :confused:

As far as the nice guy thing on the phone, I don't doubt that either. I've heard nothing but good things about Cyclemall, but I was shocked to see the competitive post titled, "The REAL Pit Bull Stand DEAL". As opposed to "The RAW deal from McCoy Motorsports"? :lol

Some people on here thought it was a way to muscle out a fellow salesman by discrediting his integrity and diligence. As you know, Mike hussles. :yesnod He works day and night to make his people happy.

In fact, I remember when I received my Chatterbox. The fine people at UPS damaged the box :fact. Yes...they did! I was so :mad:. I called McCoy Motorsports and Mike was at a car show in Chicago. Well, Shawn at McCoy transferred me to Mike's cellie while he was in the middle of a major event in Chicago !! :eek: Guess what? Mike listened to my dilemma patiently, resolved the issue immediately, and made me a happy camper. :thumbup

Now that's service! Even if he is a few $$ more than his competitors, I feel at ease in dealing with him. In fact, to tell you the truth, Mike has always spoken very highly of Cyclemall. I thought they were good friends until just yesterday. Now I have a bad :ugh in my mouth. Oh well.

I'm hoping we make 10 orders by tomorrow. :yesnod :)

IF ANYBODY READING THIS LIVES IN ST. LOUIS, AND I'M SORRY IF YOU DO, BUT CHESTERFIELD POWERSPORTS IS $119 EVERYDAY AND NO SPOOLS NECCESSARY FOR THE FAT-ASS PITBULL STAND. NO SHIPPING, JUST 6 OR SO BUCKS TAX.

ScorpionR1
08-31-2002, 11:06 PM
Arewon:

You are quite a genius and a mathematician!! :thumbup

If you refer back to my original post, the Pit Bull stand can be order with our with out spool assembly. It is not mandatory to use it with spools. Regardless, the price for the rear stand is $118.

Second, if you calculate 6% sales tax on $119, it equals to roughly $7, which means that the stand comes to $126.

Nevertheless, McCoy Motorports has maintained a reputable stance in the aftermarket retailer industry. I do not why you would come on a group buy post and try to act like a big shot by announcing some unknown company. Why didn't you simply make your own thread? :yesnod

You are entitled to your opinion as well as others. The individuals who have ordered from McCoy have the option to declien tehir order and go to CHesterfield or whoever else you recommend.

Good luck. :thumbup

Scorpion,

I am a little confused. I am not loyal to anyone. I like getting service anywhere I go. If I buy from so and so, I don't want anybody to kiss my ass or anything like that. Just run my card through and send me my stuff. If I have a problem with your product, just fix it. I am sure that both cyclemall and Mike offer great service and prices. I looked at Mike's prices and I looked at Cyclemall's prices. It seems that cyclemall is at the same price and you don't need a group buy. I think you are one of the people that makes this forum as great as it is. I respect your opinions. Scorpion, but why did you never mention to Mike that if he was going to put a group deal that requiered 10 people, then please make sure that it was the cheapest you would be able to find it. Like Madcuban tried to sell his stainless steel brake lines on a group deal of 6 or more and he was $2 above full retail and $35 more expensive than everybody else. I told him off on his same thread and guess what, he deleted it. Now that is chicken shit. I just want to make sure that if people are going to get inot a group deal, then please do some research. I don't think it's cool to go into someone else thread and offer a better price, just start another thread. I think competition is good because it's to our benefit, but there are ways to conduct it. Thanks

So, the lazy brown trucks arrived back again today to pick up the rest. All of the boxes are now enroute. You should have received a tracking # by now. :yesnod

How'd you manage to do that? Did they come w/ the bike you bought? Ebay? Friend's neighbor? That's a great price even for used so there's gotta be a catch, right? Dare I ask if you got them off the back of a truck somewhere in an inner city area? I've seen POS LP's go used for over $50ea.!!? Dude, my only conclusion is u must've given someone a hummer for your stands, not worth the price IMO. :eek:

Scorpion,

Yeah I bought 'em, about 2 years ago and I paid somewhere close to or just over $300 for the SS rear and the forklift front. Man, you and this forum could've helped me out alot back then. So if I sound a bit bitter sometimes, you know why...:yesnod LOL, seriously though I think this is a great deal personally, hell even if it saves someone $20 it's still worth it IMO. You found a way to get a good product to these guys for a little less then everywhere else, so for that, kudos to you my friend! Now what I really need is a good leather jacket (Scorpion*ahem*), just greasin' you up for a good deal..j/k. I ordered mine direct from Pit-Bull, back in the day, and yes I paid full price, but hey I got some stickers!:thumbup WooHoo! I just woke up so if this doesn't make sense...... Anyway is that Scotts still up for grabs?

thanks man, keep up the good work!:cool:

I picked them up when I was in the service. A buddy of mine was going overseas and he just wanted to get rid of them. He told me to make an offer, I said $60 and they were mine. Same guy I bought my leathers and boots from. AGV one-piece suit, Alpinestars SMX boots, $275...... I guess I was in the right place at the right time..:rock

Well, I got my new stands in today, and I must say that this group buy gets a big :thumbup

I love these things. 100% better than my old stand. I got the front and rear. Let me tell you, I can jump all over the bike, and it doesn't move. These are great!

Lets all give a big thanks to ScorpionR1 and Mike from McCoy Motorsports for putting this group buy together.

THANKS GUYS!!!!

Ya I got mine today too and it works great. I am a little bummed though its got minor damage. Someone dropped it on the top of the handle (upside down) and busted through both the plastic cap and the red cover and buggered up the metal. And it didn't happen during shipping because the box wasn't damaged. I know its just a bike stand but Damn...Its nice to get brand new stuff in brand new condition. :(

Spanky....no need to worry my little homey....Why don't you just call Mike @ 606-432-1556 and explain the situation. He is always open to hear anything you have to say bro. :yesnod Let him know. It may be a fault of Pit Bull or UPS. You never know. :fact If you don't make these kind of incidents known to Mike, how can he continue to properly serve his customers...right?

Try it out spanky. I dare ya! :lol

SPANKY:

Heads up!! Good news!! I just conferenced with SpidermanSS & Mike. Well, you are in luck my friend!

Mike is willing to replace the handle for you. Mike did not take the stands out of the bubble wrap. He took the stands out and placed them in individual boxes.

Anyhow, call him ASAP!!! 606-432-1556........!!!
