One other thing too.... if you ever wanted to revert to the 18" wheel or play around with different heights, you can install the 87 suspension...
They are. While cool, I'm not interested in that type of stand. Just looking for a simple, small, well built rear stand.
OK... just measured a 86 and 87 stock shock. Eye to Eye mm 86 - 270 87 - 280 And as I suspected the application guide lists 86 and 87 together...

Looking for a stand for my 1990 & 1995 VFR and 1988 Hawk GT. I've found I need the ability to get the rears off the ground more than one at a...
For the money you would be putting into a "rebuild"... I think you know the answer.
I recommend going thru the application guide and make sure the specs (specifically the length range) matches your needs. I've seen a couple...

On the lift she goes. [ATTACH] Priority number one is get the carbs back in and run it to confirm the engine. I am very confident judging by...
Body work removed for some work, all wrapped and tucked up in the shop attic. [ATTACH] Tapered steering stem bearings (just cuz). 11K on bike...
