I want to purchase the Freak to get rid of my air box on my speedmaster and from what I read, the rear of the bike has to be lifted a little. Does anyone know where I can purchase a stand and what kind, one that is reasonably priced?

Thanks

You need something like a bike jack? You can get them at Sears or Harbor Freight or AutoZone for under 100 bucks.

A motorcycle type, they are pretty universal. If you just ask em employee wherever you go, they should know which one you need. The cheap ones work just as well as the most expensive ones, they all lift the wheels off the ground. Get one with tie down straps, or purchase those in addition.
