i have a rear stand if you want to borrow it. find something to suport the front, and you're golden.

i went by the powdercoater by my house... they're expensive. gonna have to find someone else to do my frame. ah well, not like i have the cash for it right now anyway.

i need to find a real job....

if you break loose all the bolts first, you can just use the rear stand and a floor jack. i've done it a million times.

what i normally do is find something to anchor the forks to, like you would if you were strapping it down in a truck. leave the straps loose, then put the rear stand in, then jack up the front until the straps are tight. just make sure the straps are even on either side of the bike, and it'll stay there as long as you need it to.
