the latest an gr8est "low $ mod"

[rubbersidedown]

if anyone purchased a stem stand (the kind of front stand that goes into the hole in the bottom of yer tripple tree) , and you find this type of stand to be more of a hassle than its worth....mine comes REAL close to scratching the new paint on my front fender....

try this.... i needed a stand that would allow me to get the front wheel off the ground , but not scratch my new "Custom Painted Lowers"...by "Rubbah" .

I took my triple tree stand an' tweaked her a little .

welded up some little holders that take the place of the upper support . You just slip a piece of decent thickness stainless thru yer Axel Hole...an' wala.... cool stand.

Wont hurt lowers....wont hurt fender....safe an' secure...

have an' Unscathed 1....RSD.

...here's the additions I made to the triple tree stand...

they clip in or out in about five seconds with the original stem stand upper peice.

...then you slip a nice sturdy piece of stock thru yer axle an' lift her up....easy as pie, nice n' safe....no scratches...

A cloud... Pretty sure that is a factory seat... But I am sure Rub will custom make one for you, last I checked he was only charging about $250...
