Has anyone in the Auckland area got a front end stand, the kind that fits under the steering head?
I would like to rent/borrow/steal it for a couple of weeks while I get the forks on the RC30 rebuilt.
I am not keen to leave the bike perched on a jack for that long.

If anyone can help me out, that would just be super.

Cheers

Could always Hang it off the rafters with some tiedowns or strops...

The roof of my garage is not suited to hang things off, its a bit old and flimsy.

I think you'd be surprised how much weight even crappy looking rafters will take :)

Thought about a support under the engine ?

Yeah I did, but I need to remove and replace the headers and radiators at the same time.
