After I get my bike running, I want to clean and maintenance all the parts this winter because let's get real, you can't ride a motorcycle in Chicago during the winter. I've seen a few plans for building an engine stand/mount on this site; however, as cheap as that may be, it certainly takes its own amount of time and effort.
I'm looking for some opinions on aftermarket/prefab engine stands. I know they come with a price tag, so how essential are they really? About how much does it cost to make my own engine stand? And how often do y'all use engine stands?
I'm currently looking at this model from Lowbrow Customs:

Does anyone know of any other manufacturers that make XS650 engine stands?
Thanks in advance!
