center Stand
Does anyone know of an aftermarket manufacturer up here in Canada or the US for that matter that makes a center stand for a 1974 FLH? What are the worth if they even exist?

I think what im more interested in is a center stand I can park the bike and have the rear wheel up a little in case I want to do work on it. Vtwin has one but im concerned as to has tried them and if they are any good. I don't want something to huge either hanging down underneath so im wondering what they fit like and how noticeable they are

I've had the front ride off stand that worked fairly well. The V-twin center stand is a copy of the original HD stand for the 58 and later frames. I have a copy of the instructions for the original and it requires enlarging one of the frame holes to 3/8 and making sure muffler mount bolts are facing so as not to interfere with the operation of the stand.
