    Re: Best Dirty Bike Stand?

    I admire the utility of a milk crate, but space is not in abundance in my (parents') garage. Having a box I can move around will be very useful. Guess I have a weekend project.

    For garage use, I have one of these:
    Sears.com
    Had it for 15 years and use it for everything.

    Word. I went ahead and did that. One-click buying and free shipping is how I roll... I like the sturdiness and price point of these types. Not really looking to drop 125 bucks on a lift stand when I'm fully cabable of just lifting the bike.

    PM Manny.

    I have a stand of his and I do believe he wants to sell it.

    Provide me a number to send pics to and I'll get them over to you.

    I know I can't after a few tough motos. But then again, I'm not heavy enough to use lift stands either. So, I got a bike with a KICKstand. Aaaah

    Paul, the comment was alluding to his diminutive stature. I'm sure he'll be along soon to call me fat.

    The nerd me says, what now? What's your weight have to do with anything? It's all about leverage. And, OK... a bit of strength.

    Have you tried these things? Strength has no part if you can stand on the lever and the bike doesn't budge.

    I too am having trouble getting it up as I age. Seems like the answer is a lighter, newer, more exciting bike!

    Stand on lever, grab bar and rear of subframe and lift, kinda like doing a curl. You old guys can still do at least one curl, can'tcha?

    Re: Best Dirty Bike Stand?

    I use the 350lb MX step stand and the 1,000lb MX solid stand from HF. Both work fine, the step stand feels cheap but works, the solid stand is sweet for <$30. Mind you it's a DR350 so a pretty good sized bike.

    Oh, and I weight like 10lbs but still manage to get it up

    Yeah. Katie M is light, but I'm not sure she's quite that light.
    But thanks for thinking of me!

    all stands suck...go kick stand...just use the stand for servicing and make sure you line it up properly...cuz I can get it up, but somehow I don't it right and she comes right back down all crooked

    If you're too small or weak to put your bike on a stand...

    I'll admit that getting the bike on the stand post-moto and with some vicious arm pump going can be challenging. If I'm really beat I just lean it up against something instead.

    Risk Racing stand VS. Project Stupid - YouTube

    With dirt wheels on I basically ride onto the stand and it pops up as I use the lever to step down.
