Extended Product Information

FAQs

How do I know which size I need?

Consult your motorcycle owner's manual or check the manufacturer's technical specifications for your specific year and model of bike.

Can I use these with any paddock stand?

These bobbins are designed for use with paddock stands that feature hook or fork adaptors.

Is a thread-locking compound necessary?

While not strictly required, it is highly recommended to prevent the bobbins from vibrating loose over time.

Are these made of plastic?

No, these are CNC-machined metal spools, designed for high strength and durability.

Can I leave these on the bike permanently?

Yes, they are designed to remain on the motorcycle as a permanent mounting point for your paddock stand.

What does CNC machined mean?

It means the parts are manufactured using Computer Numerical Control machines, which provide high precision and consistent quality.

Troubleshooting

Bobbin does not fit the swing arm thread

Verify the thread pitch and diameter of your swing arm. If it does not match (M6, M8, or M10), do not force it, as this may damage the swing arm threads.

Bobbin feels loose after installation

Re-tighten the bolt securely and consider using a medium-strength thread-locking fluid to ensure it stays in place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-precision CNC manufacturing ensures a secure fit
  • Greatly simplifies routine motorcycle maintenance
  • Provides essential safety during lifting
  • Durable construction for long-term use

Cons

  • Requires specific thread size matching (M6, M8, or M10)
  • Not compatible with swing arms lacking thread bosses
  • Requires proper tools for installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, locate the threaded holes on the swing arm of your motorcycle. Ensure you have purchased the correct size for your specific bike (M6, M8, or M10). Using a hex key or appropriate wrench, thread the bobbin into the mounting point until it is snug; it is recommended to apply a small amount of thread-locking compound to prevent loosening due to vibration. Regularly check the tightness of the bobbins before each lift. To maintain, simply wipe down with a dry cloth to keep the threads free of debris.
