GRAND PITSTOP Motorcycle Maintenance Stand, Portable & Compact Lift Stand Moto Jack, Adjustable Height for Chain Cleaning and Lubrication Easy to use

Muy eficaz para una KTM 250 duke

This is cheaper and much smaller to store than a regular motorcycle lift. I used this to entirely remove the back wheel from my 2020 KTM Adventure 390 last weekend with no help from another person. I can fit this into rear bag on my bike easily to take along on rides. The folding function is more for storage than for when putting the stand into place. Here’s the strategy that works best. Put a 2x4 or something under the kickstand just to get the bike to as close to vertical as possible. Next, lock the steering and then apply the Velcro wrap to the front brake lever. That holds the front tire stationary. Now, with the front tire holding in place and the kickstand down, move to the back end of the opposite side of the bike. Unfold the lift lever (the thing you are thinking about buying) and hold it in your right hand as you push on the top of the seat or panniers to get the back tire off the ground. Finally, place the stand under the swing arm and as vertical as possible so it doesn’t slide against the ground (the included rubber pad helps a lot on concrete). Done this way it was stable enough for me to put the back wheel entirely off and then place it back onto the bike with no assistance from anyone. Now, I must add that this stand unfortunately won’t help much when doing work on the front end of the bike, whereas a regular bike stand will, but for the price and portability this option suited me.Well, that’s about all I have to say about that.

I returned this item, but not because it was faulty. The only reason I returned it was the swing arm on my bike is round and this jack is for a swing arm that is squared off. The quality was good. It well-made Jack. It just wasn’t for my bike.

Very easy to use. Perfect solution to free your rear wheel

VERY DISSAPOINTED- BAD DESIGN. NOT SAFE or STABLE. I own 3 bikes and I tried this on all of them. Even tried this on my friends bikes when they rode over. I am using CAPS to highlight the very core of these problems so others won’t make the same mistake in buying this thing. I hate wasting my time and money more than anything. I bought the cheapest, within reason, that I could find that looked good and had good or decent reviews... you will see that there are a few different styles for sale out there. I bought the wrong one ! Man did I learn my lesson fast. The lowest setting makes the locking impossible over the fulcrum and will snap out and drop the bike. It happened over and over The base does not stand even with the ground so in actuality it sits on the edge of the steel channel. SAME WITH THE CRADLE CONTACT WITH THE SWINGARM...SITS ON EDGE OF THE CRADLE NOT FLUSH.. Scrap metal. FELLOW RIDERS....beware. I'll try and upload some pictures .

Hard to get the bike up with it. The base kept sliding out on my concrete flore even with the rubber pad.

Super eficiente

I tried, but it wasn’t working, feels unstable. Returned.
