EXCELLENT STAND!
By Manny P. from Orlando, FL on 06/26/2009
Pros: Very sturdy steel stand. VERY EASY TO ASSEMBLE. The diagram was very clear as well as the instructions for whether you are going to use it with or without spools. I have it spooled so I can't rate it without spools. I have a 2007 Suzuki GSX-R 600 by the way. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS STAND TO ANYONE & EVERYONE who wants an EXCELLENT STAND for their bike.
Cons: I have NO CONS on this bike stand, this stand is PERFECT in my opinion.
The only thing I have is that I most likely didn't adjust the brackets correctly. There's nothing wrong with it because it lifts up the bike with no problem but it's a little lopsided. I don't know but please disregard this comment because it is most likely MY ERROR lol.

Great stand is even better now
By Anonymous from Anytown, USA on 06/11/2009
Pros: I had the old version of this stand, and it was great. I needed to pick up another, and Kneedraggers had the best price anywhere plus free shipping. Note: the stand pictured when I ordered it is the old version. I don't know if they have updated it yet. If you go to the Vortex website you can see the new and improved version. The new version has a detachable handle and is shaped a little differently. The lifts have been redesigned for fast adjustability. It was the best stand for the money before, and now it's the best stand you can buy, period. Forget the overpriced Pitbull and it's tacky gold color. This is the one.

Pros: Easy to lift bike, seems durable, super cheap, would fit a lot of different bikes
Cons: None
Comments: I'm glad I got this stand instead of spending a lot more for another stand. This stand has no flaws as far as I can tell in the month I've been using it. It has adjustable width and you can use... (Read the rest of this review)
