quicksilver Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I would like a recommendation for wheel supports ( both front and back ) to support the bike during wheel removal and fork work. I have not found listings for the FJ. I assume the reason is the ABS disc is sensitive to magnetism . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member wessie Posted September 13, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted September 13, 2015 A quick search of Ebay show there are lots of options for the MT09 Tracer (UK name for the bike) for bobbins to use with a standard paddock stand. Perhaps you aren't using the correct term of PADDOCK STAND? Not sure why you would need a rear stand as the bike has a main stand for rear wheel removal. This signature is left blank as the poster writes enough pretentious bollocks as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member ULEWZ Posted September 13, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted September 13, 2015 When I changed my fork cartridges, I used the factory center stand and a floor jack with a piece of wood under the engine. Worked fine. I would not do this long term, but it was for a few hours. YMMV A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.

quicksilver Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 Yes. What brand? The front support that inserts into the bottom of the triple tree is my true interest. I have not seen a manufacture's information stating that their supports are approved for theFZ 09. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to go to your front stand manufacturer website and look at their pin size chart and order that pin. It's measured in millimeters, so if you're really worried about getting the right size, grab a ruler and go measure it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbutterworth Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 20mm pin. I am using this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008SC4N14?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 These stands http://www.amazon.com/Venom-Motorcycle-Swingarm-Attachments-Kawasaki/dp/B00AV8HN42/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1443229508&sr=8-9&keywords=triple+tree+stand And generic 6mm swing arm spools. The front of our bikes is higher than the average sport bike so I used the tile under the front stand to raise the tire off the ground... Hope it helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
