Just for my buddy, Grn14
Sorry for the busa pics. That's the bike I had out today...and the bike I usually use the Heindl for because the busa is a lot harder to lift than the 14. I need the Help of Heindl more with the busa...actually gave up trying to use the PitBull forward handle. Works great for the 14 but almost dumped my busa with that thing.
In any case, the Heindl works just the same and just as well for the 14. Even more so because it clears the fairings better on the 14.
The Heindl swing arm pivot stand comes in two pieces. Each side has a spike that inserts into the swing arm pivot hole on each side of the bike. The two sides of the Heindl join by a sleeve on one side which slides over a square tube on the other side. The sleeve and the tube are locked by two thumbscrews. A long bar is inserted into the left side of the stand. The bar is used as a lever to pull the stand forward which in turn, lifts the rear wheel of the bike off the ground. Each side also has a long foot that sticks out in front. The foot is the thing that that locks against the ground to keep the stand stable after the bike is lifted.
1. Bike is supported on its kickstand. Insert the side of the Heindl that has the long square tube on the bottom to the swing arm pivot hole on the left side of the bike. The foot of the left side of the stand will loosely rest against the fairing but it has a plastic cap that will not damage the paint.
2. The right side of the stand has the sleeve. It slides over the square tube that crosses under the bike from the left side of the stand.
The right side of the stand is connected to the left side and the two thumb screws on the sleeve are tightened to keep the two sides of the stand in place.
The feet come very close to the fairings on the busa with the heindle attached to the bike but they do not touch. The 14 has much more clearance than this.
Right side fairing/stand clearance
Left side fairing/stand clearance
3. Insert lever bar into left side of stand. Raise bike off of side stand. Hold pressure forward on the lever bar. This will keep the bike vertical with very little effort. Raise kickstand to UP position (green arrow). Pull forward on the lever bar. You may also step down on the foot at the same time if you wish (I prefer to pull up only).
Upsie Daisie!! Easiest stand I ever used
