Centre Stand

Has anyone fitted a centre stand, where did they get it from and how much?
I've seen the SW Motech stand at £112 but wonder if there is an alternative.
I used to have a GS500 and miss not having a centre stand.

SW-Motech on my curvy, via M&P.

How much did you pay for it?
Was it easy to fit?
Is it easy to use and is the bike securely planted when on the stand.
Can yo provide any pictures?
Thanks.

From memory, about £70, but they may have screwed up. And it was 2 years ago.

Not too bad, this helped.

No probs.

Thanks for that chazzyb. The fitting article was interesting.
I've sen the stand for £112 so you were lucky to get it for £70. I'll have a trawl round the net. Anyway that's my Christmas present sorted.
Thanks again.

Oh, another tip when fitting: wear eye protection when getting the spring into place. I read a horror story about someone losing an eye when stretching a cetre stand spring into place and something gave way.

Thanks again that was mentioned in the fitting article and is excellent advice.
