Re: Paddock stand
I use one that i bought from M&P. IRC it cost £68 with free post. Plus you have to buy an adapter pin for around £24. The pin comes free with some sellers. It can withstand the bike plus my 17st sitting on the passenger seat.

Re: Paddock stand
Pitbull forward pull stands are great for BMW and you can order various sized Hub pins. I have had one for years and have used it interchangeably with various Ducati and BMW bikes.Very stout and have never had any issues.
