Product Information

Full details

The R&G M8 Elevation Paddock Stand Bobbins are essential accessories for motorcycle enthusiasts who perform their own maintenance, providing a stable and secure lifting point for rear paddock stands. Designed for riders with bikes featuring M8 mounting points, these bobbins significantly simplify the process of raising the rear wheel for cleaning, chain lubrication, or tire changes. While they offer excellent stability and ease of use, it is important to verify your motorcycle's specific swingarm thread size before purchase, as these are exclusively M8 threaded.

FAQs

Are these bobbins sold in pairs?

Yes, they are supplied as a pair to support both sides of the rear swingarm.

Will these fit any motorcycle?

No, they are specifically designed for motorcycles with M8 mounting holes on the swingarm. Please check your motorcycle manual or manufacturer specifications.

Do I need special tools to install them?

You will typically need a standard hex key (Allen wrench) that matches the bolt head on the bobbin.

Can these be used to protect the bike in a crash?

While they are robust, they are designed as lifting points, not specifically as crash protection bobbins.

How do I know if my bike needs M8 or M6 bobbins?

Consult your motorcycle's service manual or check the thread size of the existing mounting point on your swingarm.

Troubleshooting

Bobbins feel loose after installation

Ensure they are tightened fully; if the issue persists, verify the threads of the bike are clean and free of debris.

Paddock stand hooks do not fit the collar

Check that your paddock stand is configured for hook-style bobbins rather than the U-shape or flat-top cradle types.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly easier to mount the bike onto a rear stand
  • High-quality construction ensures long-term durability
  • Provides a safer, more stable lifting platform than standard spools
  • Easy to install with basic hand tools

Cons

  • Only compatible with M8 threaded mounting points
  • Requires a rear paddock stand with hook-style adapters
  • Does not fit motorcycles without dedicated bobbins mounting holes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: simply thread the bobbins into the existing M8 holes on your motorcycle's swingarm using a hex key. Ensure they are tightened securely but avoid over-torquing, which could damage the threads. These bobbins are compatible with most standard rear paddock stands that utilize hook-style cradles. For care, periodically inspect the bobbins for any signs of loose hardware and wipe them clean with a cloth to remove road grime or lubricant residue to ensure a smooth interface with your paddock stand.
