After contemplating an abba stand I decided that these would probably be more versatile, http://cgi.ebay.com/310291252459
What do you reckon? but I was going to be doing some work on the rear shock/linkage/swingarm, I don't know how much the abba would lift the bike, which would be better? Cheers guys!

You wont get near the suspension linkage with a stand that hold the bike up via the swingarm
bike needs to be supported by other means

really you cant take something off the bike if you are supporting the bike by it? :O no way!

Why even consider a paddock stand then?

I've stripped the back end off a few bikes by supporting the front end on a paddock stand, rope from the handlebars up to the roof beams in the shed for support and then hoisted the back end with a block and tackle and a sling under the rear subframe

I phrased my post very badly, sorry for getting sarky lol have had a really shite day on the bike, shims I bought that were advertised as 3.00 turned out to be 2.97mm and I paid a fortune on special saturday delivery balls, so wasted cash and another few days without the bike

Anyway, I know I need a centre stand to do the swingarm etc, but for everything else a set of those stands would make life a lot easier, as I wouldn't have to piss around with weighting the rear end down when removing the front wheel etc, and an abba would get in the way when dropping the block out,

If I had the cash I'd get one of these:http://www.google.com/m/url?channel=bro ... ztLKDnyJ7w

Cheers guys,

You obviously didn't spot my post about shims here viewtopic.php?f=117&t=13148 I'll see if I can get the mods to make it a sticky. Get your shims here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VALVE-SHIM-CR ... 35bb55b3d9 I can recommend these guys, the shims are as stated and he doesn't charge extra for next day delivery - every order comes next day by 1st class post.
