Abba stands imo are very good, very solid, quick to assemble and use.

Personally im happy with what i paid for it. Â£90 odd i think.

I just got abba stand from bike show looks great and will take less room than normal paddock stands and so they say can be left with bike on all over winter and its alot easiler to get the bike up on to!!!!

I want to do this was it a very involved job or just a case of drilling and tapping the swingarm?

That's what I did!

My stand luckily was free with the bike originally and had swingarm 'channels' to align. Bought the changeover parts on eBay. Voila; problem solved.

Strangely enough I got another stand free with the Kwacker I bought on fleabay!!!
