Hey Erlend,
We're still working on getting some more lines on bike stands, but right now, we can offer the LP USA stands. They just came out with a newer stronger rear stand dubbed "Series III". These stands are superior (much improved) to the "Series II" stands they had in the past.
You can check out pricing here:

Good price, good stand. I used that when I had my F4i.
Spooled ones are much easier, though. I am glad the R6 has the threads for spools.

Doh! Your stand is just fine.. .I didn't know you posted your post before I posted mine. Sorry about that. But regardless, your stand is great especially for the price you are asking for it!

Hehe.. the photos I put on the website are of the Series II style. I haven't found any photos for Series III yet but plan to take a few photos as soon as I get one in. I just used the photos for reference only.

Hrmm.. hard to find time these days to do this... but just give a call at the shop. Perhaps between 12:30-1:30pm tomorrow I will have some time to get this done for you. But you will preferably need to get your tires swapped and reinstalled before end of day if possible.

Just out of curiousity, how much does Cycle Gear charge to mount tires you did not buy from them?

Varies from store to store...
Lomita *********: $15.99/ tire. (310-530-3500)
Canoga Park *********: $12.99/ tire. (818-676-0003)
*** edit ***
Both stores said $11.99/ tire if you buy the rubber from them. This seems a lot less than what I was quoted a few months ago... but then again, maybe I am thinking of Del Amo Motorsports.

I thought if you don't purchase the tire from them they charge a grip?

They told us $30 a tire.

This guy off another board has good equipment for swapping tires. Chages $10 if you bring the rim, $20 on the bike. For $40, you can roll up on your bike. He'll prop it up on stands, mount, balance, adjust your chain, and talk your ear off. He's a nice guy, too.
He's got a good ($1000) tire changer that didn't score my rim in the slightest. Took him about 5 minutes.
Here he is.....
