Putting the bike up on a paddock stand felt kind of iffy doing it solo, because I couldn't find anything solid to hold onto. I found the grab handle kit from T-Rex here in Texas and installed it.

They went on easy and feel very sturdy. It makes putting it up on the stand feel less sketchy, and It's so solid that I plan to use it as a tiedown point the next time I need to trailer it.

The blend right in too, so I don't think anyone would notice them unless they were looking for them.

Yes, they are nice! Have them on mine, as well.

I always thought those looked cool! Smart choice if you're using a rear handle stand and keeping the OEM muffler hangers. I always went with a forward handle stand or a swing arm pivot stand because I can't stomach the thought of standing behind the bike to lift it to vertical. I have a rear handle stand for some procedures. I put the bike on the swing arm pivot stand first before lifting under the spools with the rear handle.

Until recently, all I used were rear handle stands, @Rook. It is quite easy with the grab bar of the Busa, but even with other bikes it's only stressful for a moment. This keeps the streamlined look of the bike and a place to add a bit of security/safety.

LOL BigBS, I was afraid even with the swing arm pivot stand. I guess once you get acquainted with using it, anything is acceptable. It seems most of us end up doing these things on our own but having a buddy spotter is in order the first few times you try this.

anyway...those handles are an appearance enhancement and they are useful.
