you need spools

or you can find a way to attach paddles and lift your fizz up by the swingarm, you'd have to space it out i had one like it years ago

spools... i dont need no stinking spools :)

here is how i did it

to make the sport bike lift work, i counter sunk a piece of alum angle bracket, then threaded the foot of the lift, dropped a hardened allen head into that sucker to hold it, then ran a hardened bolt thought that, spun the head of the bolt on the grinder to make it go away, used fender washers to sandwich it to the old spool holders, ran the both through the angle bracket and capped it with another nut... solid as ever and works perfect! best part is, to use on a spool style all i have to do is remove the nut
