Just a heads up, I bought the front head lift adapter for my stand's (which have been rocking since I bought them two/three years ago) and the front head lift kicks ass IMO.
Super easy installation (I actually swapped out a few of the pins just to make them smaller, I don't plan on breaking down the stands to often for moving them) and built like a brick-chithouse.
But if you're thinking about it don't hold out, and the best part is they send you almost every pin to adapt to any other bike that you may buy or need to use a front lift for (might be like that for all other stand companies, but I only got one pin with my previous front lift that I bought 6 years ago and sold with my old bike).
Ebay, $116 shipped, and that wasn't even a deal, I've seen them go for $100 shipped, but if you want to buy right away, I guess 119 is a deal.
Thanks, I actually looked on eBay and they were all about $140 shipped unless you win an auction over using buy it now. Not in a rush so I guess it doesn't hurt to bid. Thanks.
Well, I finally had to purchase the triple tree adapter for my gpi stands. I ordered the headlift adapter two weeks ago b/c I have two blown seals on my forks. With money being a little tight, I decided to try and tackle the job myself. All in all, the headlift part worked nincely. Took me a minute or two to figure out how to use it, but once I got that covered, I Lifted the bike, removed the forks and replaced the seals, and everything is back to normal. Somebody on here said that a good set of sportbike stands will pay for themselves over time and they were right.
Just ordered my own set!! Loved all the positive feedback here and I can't wait til they arrive so I can lube my chain without making such a freakin mess!!! Thanks ya'll :)
Based on the reviews I think I'm going to pick up a set of these now that i finally have a bike again after being bikeless for two years. A good set of stands make even basic maintainence so much easier.

A set of stands is a must have for anyone looking to do any work on their own bike. I remember getting a front and rear trex set back when they were up and starting out for $80+ shipping.

I finally got around to buying these last week and they seem pretty good, i agree with everybody that reccomended them. Nice stands, no wobble and the bike is held nice and sturdy, Thanks.
