Default E-z up center stand

My E-Z Up Stand arrived today, it took longer to unpack than to install, after watching the video I didn't even look at the instructions, it went on that easy, I don't have the technique for lifting it while on the bike yet, but once I get off the bike it goes right up, it is easy to drive off of, THANKS Rod I appreciate your help and fast shipping

Know I really like mine. And it is a bit tricky when you first try to lift when on the bike but it will come

I have had mine since 08 - Love it.
The HD unit - Wow, where did they get that idea, dangerous at best. I sold the HD unit I bought and got the EZ-Up.

I love my EZ up and agree it was very easy to install. You'll get use to getting it up while you're on the bike. You need to make sure you are pushing at the correct angle.

If you need some advice or help just give me a call. I sent my cell number by email, anytime works for me. Thanks for choosing the EZ-up stand.

Mine goes up easy as can be. Just put your foot on top of the bar, lift your a## slightly, and push down a bit. My wife said I look like I'm raising up to fart when I lift it while still on the bike!


p.s. If my previous posts haven't been clear, I LOVE my EZ-up lift!

The only two times I have ever dropped my bike was trying to put it on the E-Z up stand while straddling the seat.
I never had any trouble at all, standing beside the bike.

I've had mine a while and wouldn't be without it. What a great addition to my scooter.

Just a note, I find it easier if I make sure the bike is in neutral, and the stand is making contact while starting the lift. It's actually easier for me to do it on the bike than off.

I have to be on the bike - I am 5'6" and 60 years old... standing next to the bike,, it will go over before I can get it up on the stand... On the bike, its a breeze..

One very important note.... just before you put the bike on the center stand... Make DAM sure the ground does NOT slope forward or you bike may/will roll off the stand... this is very easy to miss if you are at a gas station... I learned this the hard way and no damage but it really got my attention.. Now when ever I am somewhere I am not sure, I put the bike in "N" and let it sit and feel if the bike wants to roll forward..
Just something to think about.
