Quality & finish generally good, looks very strong. Had to run a tap down two of the captivated nuts in order to get the supplied bolts for the handle section to thread which was a bit of a disappointment but no big deal.... Was about $85 shipped in the gold colour (which I believe is a Zinc plate with a yellow passivate & should stand up to scratches & rust better than the powder coat version)

I would say that someone has bought a pit bull stand & sent it somewhere in China to be copied.... It's definitely made there & why it "knocks down flat" as opposed to pitbulls that don't.
The gold the finish, tube dia etc is just about identical, wheels etc very similar too.1980 GS1000G - Sold
