The bike, the tire, the can, or the stand?

My birthday present was kindly supplied by Ratter from whom I bought the hyperpro steering dampner and screen.

Re: Check Out The Birthday Present

Okay, now the dumb question about the stand - do those of you that have them garage your bike on the stand, or just use it to work on the bike?

Flame away...

I put mine on the stand if I take the time... I feel its 'safer' on the stand myself... And as conqsoft said, it takes up less space when its upright... Stand GOOD!

Happy birthday, Omen. I hope you've had a great one. You too, Mattress. Anybody else born on Friday the 13th like me?

Re: Check Out The Birthday Present

To the question of sticking your bike on the stand, I do it most of the time for two reasons. One, I live in Japan so earthquakes and tremors are common: I don't want to come home and find the bike on its side. The second, call me paranoid, but I like to have the oil in the engine level before cranking the engine most of the time.

By the way, nice Akra I think you'll like it.
