I used the center stand on my half ton Aspencade quite a bit.......you just gotta be careful where you use it though. Wasn't hard to put it up on the stand, but could be a bit tricky getting it down. When you pushed forward on the bars, the stand wanted to scoot instead of flip up.

I always used the one on my stripped Wing and loved it, easy to put up and get down. I too would like to see this on a softail

On the easy up stand all you do is put your bike in gear and drive off. It works real good.

I'd like to see one for a lowered Wide Glide (01)!

On the other hand, I think I'll print off a picture, go out to the garage and muse over what a little grinding, welding, and re-painting might accomplish!

"Tinkering" is such a gratifying past-time!!!
