I figured out a way to make a little more room to use the Pit Bull Rear stand on the 1125R. As you may know, it works OK as is...but is a little too tight.

First, I took the washer on each side of the width adjustment off. They appeared to be limiting the maximum width of the stand. I then filed down the edge of the washer about 1/4". After reinstalling the washer this made the bearing pads just a little bit wider.

Then, I put my foot on one side of the stand and pulled the opposite direction on the other. These stands are super strong, but I managed to bend the stand ever so slightly. This bought me all the extra room I needed and now my Pit Bull Rear stand fits my 1125R much better.
