I was reading the forum and saw that the stands post was updated by iadhomike about a week ago. Where pin #15 was the best pin from Pit Bull for the front stands so far. It is not the best pin for our bikes from Pit Bull. They have been developing a pin for the Ducati Panigale, pin #28. I have tried all the pins that iadhomike has and by far pin #28 is the best for the F3 and we get at least 1” in clearance if not 1.5”.
With pin #15 the diameter was a bit too small so when you lifted up it was putting all the weight on the top and bottom of the pin, not the whole pin. Pin #28 has a few different changes to it, the diameter is increased and it has a 1mm shoulder around the whole pin which the weight of the bike rest on so it cannot cam like pin #15. Also is the increased clearance of 1” to 1.5” which helps out a good deal. The pin has just recently been developed and is not on the fitting chart yet or even for sale on Pit Bulls website. You have to give them a call up to order the pin.
If you have a Pit Bull front stand and are trying to figure out what pin to use, get pin #28. It was developed for the Ducati Panigale but by far is the best pin for the F3. Better than all the other front stand solutions which cost over $500 easily.
Pictures of the three Pit Bull pins that have been tried. The magic pin #28 is on the right.
I will try to get some pictures of the bike on the stand tomorrow.
