I can't tell from the pictures - but does that long thingy I assume you stand on or use your foot to push down to the ground while you pull the bike up and back - stick out? Get in the way? Grind on turns? Kury's picts aren't really that good.

Sounds like a major rip. Can someone please post a picture of this thing!

The chrome lever used to set the stand does not stick out or scrape the ground in hard turns. It tucks up close to the passenger floorboard and does not interfere with floorboard operation. The EZ Up stand is a quality product.

It took me a lot longer than 60 seconds but a heck of a lot less time than 1.5 hrs. About 10-15 minutes start to finish.

Cheeze,
It's a piece of cake. Easy ten minute job. After you do it you'll wonder why someone would quote 1.5 hours. Like someone else stated, it takes longer to get it out of the box.

In 30 minutes, I can take mine off and put it on at least 3 times, no sweat. Think most of their time is sticking their hand in your pocket

Thanks in advance.
Just put one on my 2010 UC in December. 1.5 hours is WAY too high. It takes less than 10 minutes, at the very most, 15 minutes. 1.5 hours is robbery. Just say no and do it yourself. Mine was a one bolt installation. It literally took me longer to unpack it than put it on. Easiest mod I've ever done.
