Front and rear stands both $70 New Cyclegear
Thought I should share an email I received from Cyclegear-
They have BOTH front and rear stands for $70 total.
Obviously they are cheap ones but will work fine for the Hawk.
it's on their website now at Cyclegear.com

That's some sweet coin until the day it snaps. Then I have a ten thousand dollar investment that has just landed on another of my favorite bikes. I've held pitbull stands in my hands. These are the standard - they were the first in the game and they set the bar.
Stands are a great addition to any shop and any bike. It's also great for keeping the flat spots off your tires. (?) More importantly it may be more damaging to the front forks to be leaning for long lengths of time.
That all said, the rear stand that I use for the Superhawk was built by our esteemed moderator Erik Marquez. I works flawlessly. If you can weld and cut some square tube - couple wheels for a creeper and poof - $26 in steel and rod - it's all good.
Erik is still at the office in Ghannyland but I'm sure he has all the dimensions. He built one for himself.
