    Nate, if you want to drive up 146, you're welcome to the use of my craftsman jack. May make it easier with the bike on a jack instead of a front stand. I wont need it for a few weeks.

    You can make an axle tool with a bolt head that fits properly into the axle and 2 nuts locked together on the threads so that you can throw a socket wrench over them. I wish I knew the bolt size off hand to help more.

    I'm pretty sure my front stand requires the forks so it probably wouldn't help. Long drive to NH for you to pick up the tool and stand anyway.

    Let me check to see if I have the correct pin for your gsxr. Dunno if you want to come this far for it though.

    Also... do you know what size axle tool you need?

    If you still need one, I have a Woodcraft Solo Operation front you can borrow. It has a 24mm pin for the triples.

    I'm up in Blackstone, MA.

    Looks like your GSX-R uses a 14mm.

    Re: can i borrow a front stand

    I just checked and one of the pins I have should fit. I think it's the #6 pin... it's either a 6 or a 9 and I don't think pitbull has a 9.

    I also have a 22 mm hex tool if you need them.
