R&G Cotton Reels Swingarm Bobbins (Spool) for Yamaha

These cotton reels mount directly into the mounting points on the rear swingarm offering the best of both worlds in terms of crash protection and functionality with the ability to use R&G cotton reels, which offer excellent crash protection to those components located towards the rear as well as the ability to lift up the rear of the bike with a paddock stand for maintenance and tyre changes. Available in Black, Orange or White . Sold in Pairs.

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.
