How to Use Paddock Stands

Putting your motorcycle up on a paddock stand is a simple process, and can be done or undone in less than a minute. Your paddock stand can be applied to your motorcycle with no tools other than the stand itself, and provides a sturdy base for your motorcycle when it is not in use.

Instructions

    • 1

      Roll the paddock stand forward so that its arms straddle the rear tire of your motorcycle.

    • 2

      Pull back on the grip so that the arms rise up until they make contact with the rear swingarm.

    • 3

      Press the grip down, lifting the rear tire of the motorcycle.

    • 4

      Raise the grip back up slowly to lower the motorcycle down to the ground when you are ready to ride it again.
