Cowling Stand to Display from Moto

[Zonic2001]

I'm about to finish my first motogp bike and would like to display it separate from the cowlings because I added special details (PE, wiring, colored tubes, etc.) to the moto that I want to showcase. I have seen in the past a custom made cowling stand made out of styrene square tubing but right now I can't find where. I have tubing I can use to build one. The one I saw looked very modern. Do you know of one I can duplicate that is not the hiroboy.com stand? Thanks for reading this thread.

I just saw the thread "Honda NSR 500 Movistar" and while the cowl hanger is very innovative and shows well, is a method to hang the cowls from above and is going to take to much height that I don't have available at home. I need a cowl stand that can be next to the moto.

This like to Joey Ko's work might help for the front cowling. I will keep looking for you for the sides. I have a stand that I made, but it is very simple.

The pics at the bottom show the scratch made stand. i also tried this method, and it was really easy to create. HTH,

Hey my friend! Thanks! Joey Ko's stand is good enough! Is that a 1.5 mm tubing? You think that is styrene tubing or a solid piece? Or is it wire? What you think?

i used the evergreen plastic tubing, but tbh i cant remember the size.

His homemade cowl stand tubing looks pretty close to the size of the Top Studio stand he used and the tubing in those are +/- 2.6mm in dia. I have the same TS stand at home and I caliper it. Good luck at the show this weekend!
