    Handy Industries.

    I got both a front and rear stand for something like $110 shipped a couple of years ago. They are nothing spectaular but they get the job done. Great tool for someone on a tight budget.

    Do a google search on them and you'll find 'em.

    Handy stands suck, they bend easily and therefore dont lift your bike straight

    AAhaaaaaaa, So thats what LP stands for.

    I earned that post, I am a Jackass For not making the connection especially since I own one. I have an LP rear stand. All it says on the stand is LP Racing. Its seems to be a sturdy stand. Do you know if their front stands are any good?

    I have the Handy stands and they have worked fine for me. Like others have said the font kinda sucks though. I don't really trust it.

    First off -- Chad shut the fuck up I dont care about your response to this dumb ass.

    Second -- Purists will say that you should always use a pin front stand for your stand, not one that lifts the forks. They say this because there is a chance that if it stays on the stand for an extended period of time there is a chance you will bend the forks. How true is this? Who knows, I'm sure Peter Kates would have some imput. If you are buying just one stand to use, spend some extra money and buy a quality pin stand for the front.

    If you are strapped for cash, and you arent going to leave the bike on the front stand for long you can buy a cheap front stand, just be warned that it may be.

    I have seen a few rear handy stands that are bent so that one side is close to an inch lower than the other.

    I dont care what you say chad!

    What do you consider AFFORDABLE?

    I may still be able to get EazyRizer lifts for a good deal if your interested, I got mine for $400, with all the attachments that came with it, that's about 50% off internet pricing

    look at it here

    I will check with my contact and see if any are still available

    it's not a glorified transmission jack that many peeps think of as a lift if that's what you mean, this thing is stable, you can climb on you bike while it's on the lift and hang off as far as you want with no worries of it toppling over
