OK, I have a dumb question. What kind of stand do you use for the Gilles "hooks". Keef95 mentioned putting spools on the stand, is that custom? Or do some stands come that way?

Good question. What you need to use is a stand that has what looks like spools on them. I have the Gille chain adjuster/hooks on my Aprilia RSV. Lockhart Phillips sells a stand specifically for them. The stand isn't too impressive looking, so I've held off buying it. They also sell adapters that you can use on other stands, the problem I have is can't find that other that the adapters fit on.

The Ducati Performance 749/999 pad stand works well, though I prefer spools.
