Hi. I have a speed twin 900 2023 that has been lowered so centre stand not an option, can anyone recommend a paddock stand so I can clean my chain please? (Riding it, Washing it, doing the chain and checking tyres is about my limit, to give you an idea of my knowledge of these things ♀️)
Hi Frankie, Welcome! I'm not far from Squire's so quite local to you. Why don't you simply shorten the centre stand if that's what you want? One bolt to put on and off so not a big issue to mess about with.
Hi. It doesn't have a centre stand, just holes for one to go. But due to having the bike lowered it will make some speed humps impossible like top of holme moss etc I have a paddock stand for the z900 as fits on two bobbins but I can't see anywhere for bobbins on the speed twin.
The Speed (Street) twin 900 with its underslung brake caliper doesn't lend itself very well to using a paddock stand unfortunately. How much have you lowered it by as the seat height is only around 780mm as standard?
Welcome @#frankie# I use one of these generic paddock stands on my bikes with dual swinging arms and no bobbins. https://www.demon-tweeks.com/uk/warrior-rear-paddock-stand-ubrpdstand/ I think there is a Spindle Bobbin option for yours but it’s only good for chain lubing and lifting the bike but not chain adjustment or wheel removal.
Hi, thanks for this I'll take a look. Chain adjustment and wheel removal are way above my capabilities. I pay someone to do those things. Or ask friends very nicely. I'll take a look at all the suggestions on here Thanks again.
OK, I would suggest the Spindle Bobbin option and this type of paddock stand with the hooks as well then. These are more sturdy and precise. https://www.demon-tweeks.com/uk/war...d-bobbin-hook-combo-ubrpdstand-hookkit-e-akn/
