How do you see the stand spools?

How do you see the stand spools? I was spoiled at Grattan with help but have lost my pit crew for Barber. So RC guys what is the trick? I can't look down to see the spools since the pipes are in the way I considered getting a mirror to put behind the bike....

Re: How do you see the stand spools?

I always held the seat of the bike, and put the stand under the lower spool, moved the stand so that it pushed the bike upwards, and to me. That would then allow the bike to be in both spools and lifted.

ummmm, let's see . . . I grab the tail section with my left hand, grab the stand with my right, lean back to position the stand under the spools and hmmmm, no problem. Are you doing this with your glasses on or off?

Guess you are farther back on the tail. I am VERY paranoid that I will drop it. It might help if the spools weren't dull gray though so they stood out better

Re: How do you see the stand spools?

OK I am not as skinny as Abtech, nor as fast, and cannot get the spools set with a degree of comfort. So tomorrow I have a Baxley coming for this weekend. This fine Alabama product will be coming in a superior Blue color

I live here so it is no big thing. As far as the CMA I have met many at the rally my brother puts on and find them to be pleasant if a bit odd.

Me and the RC are both going for reduction in Dunlop desease It really is more me being paranoid on getting far enough back behind to see them (afraid of dropping my RC )

Either they didn't see the need to save me or your skin is way to thin for the south BDA There was two tiny packets in with the manual. Nicely made and very nice folks that work there. Quick service also.

Re: How do you see the stand spools?

You may want to invest in some Delrin spools (swingarm sliders) as they are a much bigger target and easier to see (I think it's the horizontal iris that's the problem here . . .).

I will still bring the Pit Bulls (another fine Alabama product) The stand is pure convenience the folks that make it even said a racer there comes in and parks the front a second then puts it on stands to install warmers (I have none)

I didn't say it bothered me, as it took me all of ten seconds to toss it into the trash, I was just giving a heads up.
