Product Information

Full details

This guide is for motorcycle owners who use paddock stands. The Oxford Motorcycle Bobbins offer a key benefit of preventing swingarm damage and simplifying paddock stand use by providing a dedicated groove for stand hooks. A potential caveat is ensuring the correct thread size for your specific motorcycle model. These bobbins are constructed from a strong, lightweight alloy and feature a manufactured groove that precisely guides paddock stand hooks, thus avoiding scratches and damage to the swingarm during lifting.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of these bobbins?

The primary purpose is to protect your motorcycle's swingarm from scratches and damage when using a paddock stand, and to provide a precise guide for the stand's hooks.

How do I know which size bobbin I need?

You need to confirm the thread size (diameter and pitch, e.g., M10 x 1.25mm) of the mounting holes on your motorcycle's swingarm. This information is usually in your owner's manual.

Can I use these bobbins with any paddock stand?

These bobbins are designed to work with most standard paddock stands that use hooks to engage with spools or bobbins. However, ensure your stand's hooks are compatible with the size of the bobbin.

Are these bobbins difficult to install?

Installation is generally straightforward for most users, involving screwing the bobbins into pre-threaded holes on the swingarm. Basic tools are usually sufficient.

What are they made of?

They are constructed from a strong and lightweight alloy body.

Do I need to remove my swingarm protectors to install these?

These bobbins thread into specific mounting points on the swingarm. If your existing protectors occupy these same threads, you may need to choose between them or find bobbins with a different mounting system if available for your bike.

Troubleshooting

Bobbins do not screw in easily

Verify you have the correct thread size and pitch for your motorcycle. Ensure the swingarm threads are clean and free of debris.

Paddock stand hooks do not align with the groove

Ensure the bobbins are installed correctly on both sides and are level. Check that your paddock stand is designed to accommodate bobbins and is correctly positioned.

Bobbins feel loose after installation

Gently tighten the bobbins further using the appropriate tool. Ensure they are seated fully and the threads are engaged properly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects swingarms from paddock stand hook damage.
  • Simplifies the process of lifting the motorcycle with a paddock stand.
  • Made from robust yet lightweight alloy.
  • Available in various specifications to fit a wide range of bikes.

Cons

  • Requires correct thread size identification for proper fitment.
  • May require professional installation if uncomfortable with thread types.
  • Not a universal fit without checking specifications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These bobbins are designed to fit a wide array of motorcycles. It is crucial to verify the correct thread size (e.g., M10 x 1.25mm as specified for this model) for your specific motorcycle's swingarm. Consult your motorcycle's manual or measure the existing thread if unsure.

Setup:

  1. Ensure the swingarm threads are clean.
  2. Carefully screw the bobbins into the designated threaded holes on each side of the swingarm. Hand-tighten initially.
  3. Use an appropriate wrench or socket to tighten the bobbins securely. Do not overtighten, as this could damage the swingarm threads.

Care:

  • Clean the bobbins periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime.
  • Inspect for any signs of wear or damage before each use. If damaged, replace immediately.
