    Hi Guys!

    I will be collecting my 2014 Speed Triple this Friday, I'm trading in my ZX6R and I'm hoping it is a wise move. Although after a test ride of the Triple I don't think I will have a problem! I do a bit of touring, usually a yearly bike holiday with a mate, I have also done a couple of track days but don't think I'll be doing many of those until I get a cheap dedicated track bike (one bad experience followed by many expenses...). Other than that it will be mainly a bit of commuting and the odd weekend blast.

    One question I have is about paddock stands. From what I've seen so far it looks like I can use the usual cotton reels on the rear wheel, but can I use normal paddock stands? Or do I need to get some kind of special "offset" stand? If this is the case I may as well buy one designed for bikes with a single sided swingarm. What are peoples thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Ashley
