Think it is 2005-2007 blade stands are a straight fit

Bubsywoo stand on fleabay at the moment - £55.00 incl p&p. Ad says the stand sticks out 3-4 " more than standard one, and angle of lean is better. The VTR stand is an easy swap - how does it compare to the Bubsywoo one in terms of length and angle ( ooooh errr! ). Anybody able to offer an opinion ?

My self modded stand i sdefinitely better, but having seen the pic of the USA stand I know that in the long term I would like to swap it.

Leave th bubseywoo stand

Several problems with the current batch

I found the vtr leg more than acceptable

yeah i got a bubsy stand after waiting for ages for it...

then the other day the damn bike literally rolled off the sidestand and fell over

WTF!!!

not happy at all

i have to park my bike just outside my gate for a few moments - have done so every day for years..

this is the first time anything like that has happened -

there is a VERY slight downhilll, though the kind if you put a ball down it wouldn't roll - you would need a spirit level to tell its downhill really

anyway, after forkiing out £50+ and being messed about I must admit I'm not happy with the bubsey stand at all

god damn it

I nearly had a USA stand for about £80 as well but let it go because the bubsey one finally turned up
