I have Redline and they are extremly sturdy and well worth the money. I only wish it was a stem stand in front for those neck adjustments. I will have to crack and buy a pitbull eventually for this reason!

Redline stands from Redline Engineering. Check out Ian (r1formetoo) here on the forum, he'll hook you up nicely. http://www.redlinestands.com/

If you only use a stand once in a while check out this site http://www.checkeredflagmotorsports.net/stands.html great price for both front and rear stand, $125.00 including shipping.

Wood Craft get's my vote - I'm very happy with mine. They are well made and very sturdy. I have the rear spool stand and the front steering shaft pin stand.

I spent the $$$ and got the PitBulls. They work great.

Pitbulls are very nice. I have the GYT-Rs and they are sweet IMO.

:stpd: Worth every :dollar I'll second that. I've had a couple of different stands and the Pitbulls are definitely the nicest. It's actually easier to lift up the rear end with the Pitbulls as well. That $125 price is a really good deal!:thumbup

I have Pitbull stands and they have worked great. But I hear that Redline ( a forum sponsor here) stands work well also.

I had Lockhart Phillips one before I bought a set of Pittbulls, I love them!!! I didn't hear about Redline stands till after I bought the Pittbulls, but I hear Redline is a VERY GOOD product. I have never heard anything bad on them.

I've got the Pitbulls also ... great quality and worth the $$$$$ I raise all my bikes off the floor during the winter storage so I did not mind paying a little more money for the "peace of mind" knowing the Pitbulls are very sturdy and my bike will stay in the air. I'd hate coming out finding a failed stand and my bike on the floor. :(

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the WoodCraft ones yet, besides me:). Am I the only one that has them? Price wise I think they are about the same as Pitbulls.
