Default Center stand

I'm not sure anyone makes one that stays on the bike. I think the bike is too low.

I built the one from nightriders website. It lifts it high enough to do a rear wheel change.

Here are a few pics. It is higher off the ground than the pictures indicate

I just finished making one of those stands from nightrider....
Couple of things to consider....
The 3/4 galv. pipe od is to big for the 1" hole they say to drill.
If ya use two 2x8" Dry wall screws will work, even if ya pre drill, to soft and they strip out.
The 5/16 Lag bolts did not fit the Galv. flange go a size smaller....
Other than all of the above...."It works Great"

Instead of using the pipe, take a 3" or so length of 2x8 and screw that to the butt end of the other two that you screwed together to form an "L" I only did that because I was too lazy to go get the stuff at the hardware store and it works pretty well.
