OK, I have a PitBull rear stand and it does not fit my '03 XB9S. The XB swingarm is too wide. I thought about Dark Horse slider/spool set up and reversing the spool arms on the stand. Anyone else come up with a solution? I have both the spool and non-spool attachments for the stand. Mark Never Give Up! |

PitBull makes a wide stand for the XB. You have to specify the wide stand. I do not recommend trying to bodge something up to make it fit. The bike is worth far more than the stand. Keep perspective on what you are risking. |

You need to get in contact with Dave S. @ HD/Buell of Appleton, WI. He is the unofficial "CEO of Buell Customer Relations". (920)757-1651. He can get the correct stand for you and ask him for the BadWeb price. Hope this helps. |

Dave, do you have the forward ones (for the rear)? I have limited space in my garage (haha, aka shed), so the traditional one wouldn't allow me to shut the doors with it on the stand |

Will the Wide version of the pit bull stand fit the even wider swingarms found on the 2006 models? |

Make sure you've tried all the ways the stand goes together. The way mine was assembled it wouldn't spread far enough. It was only about half an inch short. I had to flip the L-brackets so they point up. It's a forward-lever stand set up for spools. I'm using using it with the dark horse axle-sliders. |

Yeah, I've tried all sorts of arrangements. I used a bunch of foam tape at one point to protect the finish, but I did not like it (I bought the stand for the previous RC51, SV650, CBR600RR, ZRX1100, etc.) I think the spools and reversed spool brackets will work. The spool/sliders don't hurt anyway. If the spool attachment with the sliders works, I will do that. Cheaper than a new stand and I would like to own the spools anyway. Thanks all and ride safe.

I originally received the narrower Pitbull stand for my XB and I called Pitbull directly and they sent me out another - FREE of charge and they even let me keep the old stand. |
