[Mr. Wong]

This is what I have and a couple others around here have:

They're about as good a deal as you can get. I have no problems with mine and they work quite well. Nice'n sturdy.

 

[J-Rod]

yes, I was looking for the handy stands...did not have the right link or something...that is a good deal, thanks for the info

Hey Jerrad, I was able to get a group buy rate on those for awhile, but for some reason another guy here tried to call my hookup, but my hookup (Sam) was shipped out to Iraq, so the deal was not honored by this other guy taking his place. I will try to call that guy here Friday and see if I can talk him into keeping the deal going.

And yes, the handy stands are great. Have not had one problem with them. I believe about 10 people here have them from the group buy.

I have a set and they are great.

 

[Mr. Clean]

Handy stands are great.
LP is 'ok'.
Some will tell you Pitbull is the best but fancy colors and grips don't make 'em better

it has nothing to do with the grips or color. It has to do with workmanship, materials and STRENGTH.

I have RUN OVER my pit bulls. Not an issue. Try that with a handy stand.

I'll NEVER buy another stand, as I have Pit-Bulls. Period. They will last me 25 years...

THAT is the difference....

 

[J-Rod]

well with handy's prices, kinda hard to beat that....that will be in my garage soon
:clap

hehehe
Mine will last just as long because I'll move them out of the way before I drive my car or truck. :loser
:laughing
Besides, Handy Stands are the same diameter/type of steel as I under stand. The difference is the styledesign of mounts and the front stand is just the type that fits in your fork tubes (but still gets the job done!)

 

[milleman]

aprilia sells handy for their bikes!

 

[J-Rod]

Pit Bull look good and I'm sure they are, but not that much better to pay double+

 

[Stitch Jones]

I had Handy, and went to PitBull. I like the Handy stands. They're great. I got the PitBull 'cause I like the pretty colors and the red rubber hand grips...

I LOVE THOSE

 

[wingzero]

yeah i got handy stand and i think nramsey BENT THE FRONT ONE!!!! hahhaa my bike always falls off it, and onto me.... that sucks

 

[Mr. Clean]

how in the f*ck does that happen.....

 

[wingzero]

well the front stand must be torqued a little bit cuz the front tire is never perfectly straight, then if you bump the bike or something, one side may pop out of the holder then you have this frantic thing of trying to figure out how to get the bike back down on the front stand with out droppin it....

 

[Stitch Jones]

If the front stand isn't working properly, don't use it. Could cause more trouble than it's worth. You should call Handy Industries and see if they'll replace it.
