Hesterberg-Cad/Cam 8mm Bobbins / Paddock Stand Spools for Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2017–2023)

When every minute in the paddock counts, stable and reliable lift points are not optional — they are essential. These Hesterberg-Cad/Cam factory-style 8mm bobbins are precision-made from aerospace-grade aluminium 7075-T6 and engineered for exactly the kind of hard use that track days and race weekends demand. Fitting directly into the swingarm of the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2017–2023), they give you defined, repeatable lift points for your rear paddock stand, every single session.

Key Features

• Purpose-built for the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2017–2023 swingarm — direct bolt-on fitment with no modification required
• 8mm thread interface compatible with standard rear paddock stands, making track-day preparation fast and consistent
• Machined from aluminium 7075-T6 for an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio — each bobbin weighs approximately 60 g
• Factory-style finish complements the sporting character of the GSX-R without looking afterthought
• Simplifies tyre warmer fitting, chain maintenance, rear wheel removal, and brake servicing in the garage or paddock
• Supplied complete with M8x30mm mounting bolts — no additional hardware required

Built for the Track, Ready for the Garage

At a track day or race meeting, the ability to get the rear wheel in the air quickly and safely is something experienced riders take for granted — until the right hardware is missing. Hesterberg-Cad/Cam have applied the same attention to detail here that defines their broader range of precision chassis accessories. The 7075-T6 aluminium alloy is the same specification used in high-load aerospace and motorsport components: hard, light, and resistant to the corrosion that workshop environments inevitably bring.

Once fitted, the bobbins sit flush with the swingarm and serve as permanent, defined contact points for any compatible 8mm rear stand. Whether you are rolling the GSX-R onto the stand before fitting tyre warmers on a cold grid, chasing a chain lube between sessions, or pulling the rear wheel for a fresh set of slicks, these bobbins make each task measurably cleaner and more controlled.

Everyday Workshop Utility

Away from the circuit, the same advantages apply in the home garage. Rear tyre changes, brake pad inspections, caliper maintenance, and swingarm bearing checks all benefit from a stable, repeatable rear lift. The factory-style aesthetic means the bobbins integrate naturally with an otherwise standard or lightly modified GSX-R 1000, adding function without visual clutter.
