Don't buy the Abba, if you can find one get an NWS instead.

Often quoted as a better alternative to the ABBA stand, but aren't made any longer and a rarer than rocking horse poop.

Not so.

Abba and a nice axle stand under the engine after its been put on the stand, just for that little bit of peace of mind. YC always has mine on an Abba9occasionally with an added stand just in case), and I'm rather impressed with it, I want one, but I'm not sure they do the attachments for the Raptor......not that I ever intend to fix it...but it may give Im Indoors the hint that he could work on all of the bikes

if we had an assortment of bits to go with it.

I've gotta say, the man is rarely wrong. And this is just another example of that.

I found an NWS stand on ebay for £40 inc P&P.
