I have a HD center stand sitting in the corner of my garage, dont waste your money.
On the bike I have a Wheeldock, nice unit. Comes in different heights so make sure you get the right one. Nice unit
I installed the Rivco centerstand on my 08 Ultra no issues with using the Craftsman yellow jack.Easy to put bike on the stand and take off,enough clearance to remove rear wheel also.
I also have a Wheeldock center stand. I can get the rear wheel off the ground using a 1/4 inch piece of plywood, it can be placed on the stand while on the bike. I have the red Craftsman jack and have no clearance issues using it with the Wheeldock stand.

Well, sounds like everyone loves the WheelDock. Where is the best place to get one? Are they just available from their web site or can a deal be found on another site?
The lever to use it sure does look user friendly; much easier looking than the HD.
5 of us bought the Wheeldock Ez up stand at sturgis this year. It is a well built stand, but out of the 5 of us 3 have dropped their bikes while putting it on the stand while on the bike. I dropped mine at a gas station on the way home. Embarrased the hell out me. Luckily I held it and just lowered it down to the crash bar with no damage.
Best tip I have is put the kick stand down to catch the bike just in case!!!

Putting the kickstand down is an excellent suggestion!!! Wish I had put the kickstand down!
I laid mine down on the crash bars when first trying to use the center stand while sitting on the bike. Felt like an idiot...but no damage done! I thank the HD engineers for the excellent design of the crash bars for saving my bacon that day.
