thanx Johnny nice price and look like nice stands, will they work with extensions? im worried if the lifting ears will go in and hook to the spools before the framing of the stand hits the rear tire?

i use the t-rex stands, got the non anodized ones off e-bay 2 years ago. they work great. the lifting ears can be turned around if they are in your way.

yes but you wont be able to use your spools( they will be too deep) , the lifting part of the of the rear stand flips over and you use the other side it has the rubber covered tabs that adjust and lift the swingarm
it works just as well as spools imo

the Cadillac of stands if you're willing to pay: forward handle pit bull. And no balancing act required putting the bike on the stand, and nothing sticking out behind the bike. I've seen extended ZX14 bikes sitting on them too with no probs
