    Supposedly $430 for the stand, but they're trying to get some sort of group buy going on one of the 1000rr sites.

    If a company buys a pallet of 50, it's $120 each, plus customs, etc...

    Drawback is that they're made in China.

    it only takes like 6 extra seconds to get a bike on front and rear stands.

    Also it doesn't go high enough to change a tire. Looks like it has two purposes: Install tire warmers & hold the bike in place.

    Good idea but could be much beefier.

    I liked the video until they showed the gears and the thin metal.
    I'd like to see a really well built version, built in USA.
