Default Anyone Try this Center Stand????

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Harley-Tour...dson#vi-ilComp

I have a DIY air ride since im too f'in short for about everything. I can BARELY reach the jiffy stand, even with the jiffy extension on it, and thought maybe this would work?

Anyone try this? or is it ONLY for stock height bikes?

I have a 2013 SG, Monroe Shocks, stock wheels and front end.

Why don't you try an electrical center stand,
It's just a push of a button.
Might be helpful for you

I have a center stand similar to this one on my '04 Electra, and it's a pain in the a$$, I blew out my mini ape handlebar bushings trying to get it off the stand, I usually only use the stand for winter storage, due to it being such a pain.

They are garbage, as is the one Harley sells, 91573-09A. These are an exact clone. STAY AWAY. I purchased one on eBay. It is next to impossible to raise my standard height SG. The lever to raise the bike is close to the primary and rear crossover and you can barely get your foot on it. Almost dropped the bike. Once I had it up on the stand, no matter how hard I pushed and rocked it, I ultimately had to get my Sears lift, raise the bike to get the stand up, and lowered the bike. It also gouged my concrete garage floor as the feet are poorly designed. I can not believe that Harley even sells these. Just go to their website and read all the negative reviews on this style stand.

I don't see the center stand like this being a pain if you have air ride to lift it off of the stand and pull away same with putting it down. Should be able to flip it down and set the bike down to it with air. I say go for it.

You can probably even chop the stand to park really low on the air. Should work pretty slick actually.
