I have the rear Pitbull & it's sturdy & secure. Availability for the front is limited though. Worth the wait if you can find it.

Great video man!!! Very informative and your speaking vocab and voice is ideal for these type of videos.

Glad you think so!

Other than Bursig or a wheel chock...Im not using anything other than Pit Bull...but this is great info as always.

There is no issue at all to sit on the bike. Its just Ducati "legal" protection so you don't sue them if you do something stupid. The only rule to follow is...do not sit on the bike while someone else would be putting the bike on or off the stand, always put the bike first, and only after sit on it.

Thanks for the very good and clear explanations. I just bought the Ducati stands which are affordable compared to other brands. (Well at least in Belgium) Now the Ducati store told me they are made by the lift manufacturer "LV8" (elevate). It's an italian brand. Which is the official distributor for bike lifts to be used for the Ducati technicians in some stores in Belgium. So they must be good. At the store they use all these Ducati stands and are very good quality. Greetings.

I need to purchase some just to store my v4s for this winter 🥶

Sorry, i ve the same, it s normal if you turn the real wheel with your hand that the bike swing slightly on the left and on the ringht??? Thanks

I have a BMW R9t and I was able to just get the pin from pitbull for the PP and it works great! Even the Ducati people told me to go with the pitbull. I do like the red color of the duc stands but you could always Powdercoat the pit bullls. I do need the front stand for both the R9t and the PP. I think pitbull is a sturdy design and great stands, but I like how the red Ducati stands match the bike. The good thing about the rear pitbull stand is that you could get the other pin to work on the sprocket if you need to change it.

I agree. If I am changing the sprocket I will probably just leave the wheel on.......

Sucks Pitbull killed their contract with Comoto (cycle gear, revzilla). Used to be able to get them locally very easily.

Your over thinking the sticker. I own pittbull. Lucky for me the 2016 pikes Peak stands work with the 2023 pikes Peak.

They may have a Ducati sticker on there but you know that's about it. Shame they're not up to spec. You can't always rely on a third party company building parts as well as Ducati themselves. Lesson learnt I guess 😩

The SSSA Ducati stands are actually the best value for money. They are really well made and they do the job. The front and the DSSA ones are... meh. Anyway, it's not a good idea to sit on your bike while on stands (any kind of stand), and there is absolutely no scenario where I see the need to do that. Use a wheel chock if you want to stand on your bike to adjust it or practice.

Hey Rembo, hope this finds you well! Have you looked at a center stands? I was thinking of getting one, just to make it easy to move the bike around the garage.

@@RemboUSMC did it work well? Do recommend any brand? Appreciate your insights as always.

😆 Duke stand good for light duty home mtce - did you see how much the rear SS stand flexed when the PP was lifted? That is what they all do.....maybe not the Pitbull as it has stronger metal. This is why both are tagged 'no rider'. So the RED stands are not for robust work, just home mtce/cleaning. For my V4SMS I use the bikes center stand ( now with modded pins and circlips) and place two pieces of 4x2 under the crash bar cross strut - one either side..... I know, a big spender on stands, 🥴😇😆😉.... but it works well for heavy duty jobs like forks & wheels off, and I can sit on it (when the wheels are back on....I'm not totally crazy) 👍.... Sorry, can't attach a pic here 🤔.....but your Ducati crash bars can be useful as a track lift tool.....😉

Excellent point with the crash bars. Great idea.

Instructions for my pitbull stand say: "Do nog sit oj the motorcycle while fhe kotorcycle is supported by the stand."

I got the exact same stand, which pins do I use with the Ducati 1199 Panigale??

@RemboUSMC

My stand from Ducati came with the pin specifically for it. I did not have to swap it out. Many of them are the exact same size.

Man. At my dealership, the Ducati branded stands actually cost MORE than the Pit Bull stands😮 I ended up buying a Pit Bull stand because I couldn't afford the Ducati stand at the time.

Pierobon stands are probably the most robust on the market imo. Just be prepared to sit down before you see how much they cost.

I wouldn’t worry about not sitting on your bike on those Ducati lifestyle stands. It’s just a warning so endemic of US culture to sue the shit out of not obeying warnings. If they are rated for bikes, then you’d have to be a super fat bastard to break them, plastic joins or not. Why don’t you try it out & see if you fall on your backside 😉 I’d bet the bike will fall on its tyres, not in your tool box 🤙

use the stands you have they will be fine.
