Wheel Cleaning Stand

Has anyone tried the Harbor Freight Motorcycle Wheel Cleaning Stand? If so, what do you think of it? I have a coupon from HF that has them for $20.99.

I have a set of these that I used a lot on my SuperMoto bike (a 250lb bike). Same basic concept. Definitely a very useful tool. I still use mine on the Street a Bob, but the bearings get a little tight with the weight. That HF item looks sturdy enough to do the job with a heavier bike.

No question, if it's well made and sturdy, you will appreciate the convenience.

I picked one up at one of their "yard sales" but have yet to use it. It seems like it would be good to clean the grime off the back rim.

Just a quick note. Several years ago, I picked up a set of these (different brand and less expensive.). These allow you to do a full service without the jack being in the way, plus you can rotate and clean your wheels.

There are newer versions that pick up the front by the tree so you can do fork work and remove the wheel. I know they aren't $20, but they are great tools.
