You can pick them up for as little as a fiver when SJS have them on auction listing. _________________ There was a checkpoint charlie He didn't crack a smile...............

Personally I feel there's no benefit to a stand when extra weight and altering the lines of the bikes contours are concerns, there doesn't seem to be more pro's than con's.
