So they design a bike without centre stand and now we can't clean the shock unless we have a paddock stand. Ridiculous. As ridiculous as designing a bike that needs a fender extender, put it on when you produce the bike for god sake it's not rocket science mr Suzuki (and all other makes who do it).

Almost as stupid as designing a bike with acres of chrome and bare polished alloy and then selling it on the UK market where it's going to corrode to nothing if not polished every time you ride. Worse still, some of the bikes imported into this country are only made to be rideable in straight lines, when we have so many corners and bends on our roads... ludicrous. Who'd buy such a bike?
Who says you need a paddock stand to clean a shock, you can still get in there whether it's tilted over or upright. I never had any wet weather plug problems without a fender extender on my old K3 naked, and nor does the mate I sold it to.
