Kern-Stabi X518 Order Question

[Cornel]

Hello everyone,

For those who ordered the Kern-Stabi X518 in the United States, how did you do it? I tried placing an order on their website, but the drop down for country does not show United States and I cannot go any further. Any suggestions?

What the heck is kern stabi?

It's about the only proper and safe way that I've found to lift the R18 wheels off the ground.

There are ways to jerry rig it, but this is the proper way.

Oh, nice

Just came across this thread. I found it on motorcycleparts-hornig.com

I see a lot of options for other things + only 2 exhaust adapters.

My questions are:

• Re: the 1st option: "Ranging Set (4x set of rolling)" I'm assuming those are the wheels --does that mean the wheels are sold separately?
  Or are these an upgrade of some kind?
  
  
• What's a Replacement pin V2a?
  
  
• There's only 2 exhaust adapters Dr. Jeckll and Hattech
  
  
• So I'm out of luck using the Kern Stabi if I were to buy the Freedom Performance exhaust?

thank you very much for your email.

Yes, the Express shipping service is not cheap but it is a little cheaper at the moment than the normal slow DHL/USPS service (which is still a strange supply chain/Covid problem … we hope this will get back to normal soon).

But we can’t offer it cheaper at the moment.

Your order will be shipped today.



You will receive an automatic email with DHL tracking after your package was shipped (after 7 pm German time).

Please check this tracking to know when your order will arrive.

Express-shipping to the USA will usually take about 2-5 business days (no guarantee, in rare cases a bit longer).



And please use Loctite or any other screw glue, when you install those pins.



If you have any further questions please contact us again.





Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Kind regards,



Ihr Hornig Team

Ordered two kern-stabi lifts for my bikes. Last one I ordered on a Sunday and received the next Thursday. Fast service!

I have found the Kern Stabi to be just the right tool for lifting the R18.

But I created a temporary problem for myself. I removed the Akrapovic pipes with heavy black brackets in order to install the Hornig Haatech pipes. What this did was remove two lift points at the back of the bike.
I'll need to fabricate a piece to go between the bike and the kern stabi. Shouldn't be too big of a problem.

 

[Jdmartincarolina]

Did you ever fabricate that piece for the kern stabi and your new pipes? If you did can you I share a picture. Thanks.

 

[BER18 100]

I use the front pin and two blocks at the back. It isn’t particularly stable.
Will take a pic next time the bike is “up”.

 

[Jdmartincarolina]

Thanks i am in the same boat, working on best way to “do” the two blocks in the back. Thanks again.

Any US Custom Fees involved? Wonder if tariffs will change Customs involvement.
Thanks,

To my surprise, I found out that Hornig makes special brackets for every pipe they sell. After buying the correct bracket, problem SOLVED!
