Default Wheeldock Center Stand

I ordered one of these and felt I had to post about it. Seemingly great quality and really a few minutes install, one bolt to tighten. Fits very snugly around the frame elements on my 2014 RK and does not block access to the tranny or oil drains.

It came in a few days and I was expecting a hassel install due to it's location, but it was very easy.

Easily co-exists with the jiffy stand (man do I hate that term) also.

I have no association with this company at all, just a deserved recommendation IMO.

Default Thanks

I have been considering a center stand. The fact that it was easy to install helps. Why this brand v. the HD product?

How easy is it to get the bike up onto and off of the stand?

I bought it based on a recommendation from another. Also watched the videos on their site for installation and use. Check it out.

The first few times were interesting, but then I got the hang getting it onto the stand. Need to push down on the lever while biasing weight a bit to the right as they say. Getting it off is easy, just rock forward or MUCH easier, put in 1st and ride off. While learning, I kept the kickstand down just in case. Occasionally I need to rock it once or twice. Both tires are on the ground when on the stand.

It is virtually impossible to get it onto the stand while the bike is pointing uphill. Really works best on a level surface.

I also just bought one - called the guys to make sure it fits and also to see if they can powder coat the entire thing black instead of the chrome that it comes with. They took care of me and powder coated it all black for free and got it in the mail within a few days. It came in the mail while I was out last week so looking forward to installing one night this week.
