Front and rear stands
ok, i'm in the market to get a front and rear stand so i can take the wheels off my bike to have tires installed. this way i don't get charged for the shop labor of them taking my wheels off. anyone have any reccomendations? preferably something not to expensive. any packages that have both?

I built my own rear and I use a Suzuki front. But, I was going to say, why get someone else to change your tires. Do it yourself. Get a static balancer for around $150 and some tire irons for $20. I use three irons. I built a bead breaker but you can use the old 2X4 trick and break the bead too. I won't let most of the shops touch my rims for fear of breaking or tearing the bead on a new tire. Those machines will stretch a tire and tear the bead if there is a careless operator (which they all are). I was in the local Honda shop and came across a sign above the tire machine. It said (The shop is not responsible for broken or bent aluminum wheels). What kinda crap is thatI would have there heads on a stick for bending my wheel. Not to mention breaking. Do it yourself, spend the coin on some tire changing gear.
Spank that Twin !!!
