Rear swing arm stands are so incredibly expensive. Hell any motorcycle stand is too expensive. I just do not get it. There is more technology worked in to childrens toys that cost $15.
Well I at least found my solution at Harbor Freight. Now before you run away in fear let me tell you two things.... 1.) I read several great reviews about this particular rear stand. 2.) I was willing to be wrong for $39.99 less a 20% off coupon.
Haul Master Low Profile Rear Motorcycle Spool Stand
Works perfectly my GenII.
Pros:
Cons:
We will have to see over time how this holds up but I have to say this thing is solid. You may want something better for frequent paddock use but for casual home use I say it is ideal.

Haul Master Low Profile Rear Motorcycle Spool Stand
Works perfectly my GenII.
Pros:
- Very light at 6lbs
- Very solid all aluminum construction
- Roller scooter type wheels work perfectly and roll smooth
- Easy assembly
- Price cannot be beat
Cons:
- Must use allen wrench to adjust for other bikes (not spring)
- Does require minimal assembly
- Probaly will not work with larger shogun style spools. I have tiny spools and I have it at almost the widest setting to fit them.
