I've recently sent a universal Harris Paddock Stand back as my bikes fell off it 4 times now as basically the pins are too wide for the ZX10 and the front part of the Fork leg is only just on the back edge of the pin by 3mm or so and when lowering it twist off and drops. Ordered the 'Under Fork Spiggot' type instead but in the mean time have bought a Moto GP Headstock stand with 5 Pins. None of these Pins are big enough by a mile! Measuring it the hole size seems to be about 27mm? I can't take my front wheel off now and I desperately need to so I can take this faulty Slick back to Infront Tyres to see what they say.
Yeah the spigot loads better mate I had to buy bigger http://www.gremlinracetech.com/product/PDSHEADPIN
Clicked on ya link Wedgie but it seems they are no longer available? 27mm seems to be the one I need?
27MM HEADSTOCK PADDOCK STAND PIN - UK ROAD AND RACE I will ring and check that the other end of this will fit in a MotoGP stand.
Can you not just get a sleeve to slot over your existing pin to bring it up to 27mm? That is a 5 minute job
Does the 27mm pin not need to be turned down slightly in order to fit the blade? I know this has been brought up in a few threads before with the required sizes we're posted but I seem to recall an issue with the 27mm pin being just a lil bit too big!
Ah I see, I guess that's what happens when I'm tryin to read and take a phone call at same time.......Ma lil mind disny take all the info in then just makes stuff up!
Just a thought will harris not machine you one,they have a fab shop,I got some shims off them made for the clip ons 51mm I think.
I used a socket out of my tool kit over one of the supplied pins on the blade as it was to small works fine but I need to order a 27 and then file it down to a 26 I think
It's not a Harris stand it's a MotoGp Stand. I'm currently waiting for a Front Fork Spigot Stand from Harris hence why I bought this as a stop gap because as it 'stands' (no pun intended) I can't swap my wheel out.
