Just put the storm back together after renewing all the exhaust gaskets and thought i may as well improve the rusty looking pipes while i was at it so wrapped them all up.
Looks better than the bar b q paint and it doesn't blow now so i'm happy with that!

Re: headers all wrapped

No mate, no mounts needed. It's the abba stand that has adaptors that fit the swingarm pivot points. 1 side goes over the large nut and 1 side sits in the hole from the pivot. Just take off the rubber bungs, split the stand and slide it under from the left side and locate the adaptor, attach the other side and locate the adaptor in the pivot bar hole, do it up and then lift the bike up using the extendable handle and job done in under 2 mins and solid as a rock. Best stand i have ever bought. Piece of cake to use and lift the bike on to the stand with one hand. Do a google search for abba bike stand and they have a demo video that shows you how it works. If you change bikes you can just buy another adaptor kit to suit for about £15-£20 and keep the same stand

looks very cool, hope you used gloves, i didnt and it made my hands itch for ages!!!!! PS Abba stands are awesome they let you work on front and back wheels and really stable, definately worth the money.

Ha, yes used gloves and put a long sleeve top on too. Agree that Abba stands are superb and also that the front stand is a waste of cash. I just use a trolley jack and a small piece of wood and that's it, both wheels off the floor and cheaper than the £50 abba want
