Get an abba!

None of the above work for ABBA

Neither do I, but get one.

Few turn up on EBAY for a few quid less than full price, plus you can sell it on or get adaptors for your next bike, without having to buy a new stand.

Don't buy a cheap paddock stand they ain't worth it

Another vote for

The NWS stand is just as good, but not many of them around these days.

Abba is the best way forward, a proper stand that will last for ages and works on any bike (with bike specific adapters). However, if budget is tight and all you need is to lube the chain or inspect your tyres, a £25 paddock stand and some bobbins will serve you just as well.

But what about the front ??
All my other bikes have had centre stands - ideal for taking the front wheel out - but the SV doesnt: Do you all have front stands ? How do you get it up (ooh matron) to get the front wheel out ? I have a rear paddock stand (no idea what make by the way - its red), can this be adapted to the front ??

Excuse me asking thick questions, but I am thick ..
