R&G Cotton Reels

These R&G cotton reels mount to the paddock stand mounting points on the rear swingarm; dual purpose they offer both crash protection, protecting the expensive and important rear drive and braking components as well as offer the ability to lift the bike up onto a paddock stand for chain adjustment, tyre changes and general cleaning.

Suitable for the following bikes:
<B>Kawasaki:</B> ZX250 (Ninja250R) '08-'12 , Kawasaki Ninja 250 ('13-'17), Kawasaki Ninja 300 ('12-), Kawasaki Z300 & Z250 '13-'18 & CFMoto 675NK ‘25-, 800MT Sport / Touring / Explore '22-, 675 SR-R '25- & 800NK '23- models

Cotton Reels are large paddock-stand supports that thread into the mounting points on your swingarm, giving you a secure and reliable lifting point while also helping protect the swingarm itself in the event of a slide or drop. 

For bikes where the mounting holes aren’t centred or the swingarm shape creates clearance issues, we also offer offset Cotton Reels. These use a stepped or angled design to shift the lifting point outward, ensuring the paddock stand engages cleanly and safely — even when a straight, screw-in reel won’t fit correctly.

Whatever your swingarm layout, standard or awkward, there’s a cotton reel option that keeps your bike stable and easy to lift.
