Has anyone any experience of using or owning one of these stands?

I saw one at a dealers today down in Shipley and it looked very impressive. They're bloody expensive though at £350 approx.!

Would they demonstrate it with a GTR1400 for you ? 

Handy bit of kit if it works on such a heavy bike.......

Looks good ... I'll see if they are at the NEC bike show next week for a closer look.

Its designed for a bike weighing about 400kgs but the manufacturers state its good up to about 500kgs. If memory serves me correctly the MGW of a PTW is 410kgs so it should be more than capable.

Nigel, good idea about the NEC, if you see one pick one up for us eh, they're only a few quid.  :whistling:

Yeah, sort of, it lifts the bike, but it aint no bike lift, and £350.00, nah, don't think so...

I've since been notified that the ENVY range of stands are no longer manufactured, however they have been taken over by another company and I'm currently awaiting details of price/availability etc.
