Mine came with a little YZ85 and it's fine for most crossers. So I'd say universal mate similar to this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorcross-Alloy-BIKE-STAND-Box-Enduro-Trials-Enduro-/230661024161?pt=UK_Cars_Parts_Vehicles_Other_Vehicle_Parts_Accessories_ET&hash=item35b477e9a1

 

I think that oughta do the trick

once the back wheel is out

ull need 22mm spanners and a socket

remover the linksge bolts 2 of 1 end fasens to the swing arm 1 to the linkage knuckle

once they are both out u need to undoo the nut on the swing arm pivot bolt just above the rear brake /foot peg

then tap it out with a long drift

once thats out sit behind the bike again and wiggle the swing arm out around the shocker

simples !smile
