Center stand
I had one on my 05 ultra and have one on my 08 ultra. EZ UP Center stand will stand(no pun intended) behind their product. I had an issue and they had me send back to them and instead of rebuilding mine they sent me a brand new stand at no charge.....I use mine on trips when filling tank to get most out of the tank. I will also use it if in tight spots as someone else has mentioned. I also like using it for changing fluids or when working on adjusting primary clutch pack....
My friend bought a condor bike dolly. It holds the bike up straight an makes it super easy to move around but it was a little pricey. I have rear air ride an I was looking at the electric center stands but they are price an a little more of a pain to install...if I come across a deal on a used center stand I might pick it up to try to modify it an cut it down for a manual stand for the air ride.
If you're looking for _only_ oil and other minor service, get a jack. Harbor Freight (under $100) does a great job. If you want something for 'on road' use, such as fueling up, stopping for a drive-in movie (yeah, i've done this), or parking in a tighter than normal spaces, the Wheel Dock seems to be the ticket. Currently runs about $270 and is about a half hour to set it up (that includes finding the wrong tools, throwing those across the garage floor and then getting the right ones and another beer).
The stand has one bolt on 2009 and up bikes. Are you including drinking a couple beers in that 10 minutes? 🤪
Does this center stand affect using a jack (J&S) to lift the bike?
Looks to be a good option when washing or just piddling with my SG.
My other bikes have center stands and it makes working on them easier when a jack isn't required.

You can use a jack with the EZ-UP stand, but I found it easier to remove it when I wanted to use the jack. It's literally one bolt and takes just a moment to take off or put on.
Your profile does not allow me to p/m you
