1200 DVT What Rear Stand?

  1. pretty sure a panigale will fit, and a diavel, does a 1*98 fit? Decided I need one for cleaning as I can't get the front wheel out without some dodgy set up on the centre stand.

    Thanks
     
  2. 1098/1198 will fit...:upyeah:
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  3. I use the same (Ducati) rear stand on the '12 Multistrada, '12 Divavel and 1098R. Andy

  4. I've just remembered, I do have an old Abba stand with some bobbins that fitted my 848. Wonder if that will fit...
     
  5. I'm just up off nights so may be a bit woozy/thick here, but you want a rear stand so you can get the front wheel out ??
     
  6. If the bobbins don't fit find some sockets that will and tape them in to the abba holes.

  7. Yes.....think it thru.....
     
  8. The rear needs to be high enough for the front to be lifted clear on a stand. The centr stand doesn't do that. So far I have just propped up the front with an axle stand but it only gives a couple mm clearance from tyre to ground and is more than a bit unstable!! So you need a paddock stand to lift the rear a bit :upyeah:
     
  9. If you plan to still use the centre stand as balance point - lifting the rear - will push front nearer to ground - actually should be touching on centre stand - with back wheel 20mm off ground approx.
     
  10. If you put a front stand under while on the centre stand it will simply topple over. Hence needs alternative stand
     
  11. So you need front and rear stand - that makes more sense...
     
  12. So you need front and rear stand - that makes more sense...
     
  13. I have loads of front stands, a few rears too, but it's the sssa rear I don't have :upyeah:
     
  14. Well the Abba fits one side, but not the other and the gap is too tight for a socket. Considered rigging something up with the adapter and a socket to go into the Allen bolt :idea:, but decided weight on that point may not be the best idea especially as it would need to be made to fit with tape.... :confused:

    So back to plan A :fist:
