Check the ABBA website for all the options. It's a simple bar add-on with a strap so you can have one or the other wheel off the ground, or both.
Video of the add-on.

This Abba stand (especially the superbike stand) looks like a modified Version of a "Werner Staender" (a stand wich is patented to the linked Company->) http://www.werner-staender.de
Pictures: http://www.werner-staender.de/beispielbilder.htm
Instructions (incl. video) how to use the stand: http://www.werner-staender.de/anbauanleitungenglish.htm
Should be similar with the Abba stand, i guess ;)
If the Abba stand ( http://abbastands.co.uk/product-detail. ... tand&pid=1 ) works for the FZR 600 (3HE/3HH) then it will work for the 3BF Series, too ;)

End of the day, I'd rather have a 30$ solution than a 300$ solution ... thanks anyways, everyone!

I'm ordering the ABBA stand and the extra lift bar kit for getting the wheels off the ground.

They have a fitting for the 22 mm. nut on the right side and a 10 mm. pin for the left side of the swing arm bolt.
I will have to drill the end of the bolt 10 mm. x 16 mm. deep to make it work but well worth it IMO.
Any future bikes application will only cost me $25 dollars for an additional adapter kit : ))

This is also a great setup for storing my bike with the suspension unloaded : )

The great thing about the Abba is the same stand will fit all bike (with a kit) and they're easy to use. Hook paddock stands are ok but theres of pouncing about with them.

I have to get mine from Canada because they don't ship to individual addresses from the UK. I go the Superbike 2 Kit.
It's incredible how something so simple in design can make bike work so much easier. Can't wait to get mine :)))

NICE Bimota! I spot that early GSX-R motor anywhere. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
