Centre Stand wanted
 

Hi all,


I am after a centre stand for my sv650s K9 pointy.


Anyone got anything ? or point me in a cheaper direction than the £150 one from Germany on ebay!


Thanks

Get a ABBA stand instead, those centre stands aren't great

What do you want it for?

If it is to work on your bike, get yourself a good work stand instead. They do make it easy to work on the swing arm though if you have a centre stand. :-(

Didn't know about those ABBA stands , look quite good.


Yeah I wanted it to lift the back up to work on. Need to drop my shock out and give it a good clean and re grease all the through bolts etc. Needs doing or in the future ill never get it off.

Then the ABBA stand is your best friend here, where the centre stand fits, makes getting to the linkage bolts a PITA.

Get the footrest adapters and then you can remove the swingarm too, as the bearings didn't get much grease applied at the factory.

You won't regret it, its a useful bit of kit

Re: Centre Stand wanted

Thanks for the advice!

LOL, no but after using rubbish paddock stands in the past, which take up loads of space in the garage, when you get an ABBA stand you realise why its a great piece of kit to have.

I bought one of those centre stands from Wemoto, but i couldn't fit it, because i have non standard header pipes and exhaust.

ABBA stand with the front lift arm and you can do anything on the bike. simply great piece of kit. when your done with the SV you can just get buy an adaptor kit for your next bike. the ABBA stand is a tool you will have for life.
