Chrome Display Stand #99002-97A
I am considering purchasing the HD chrome display stand on my 2007 Ultra; has anyone installed one? How difficult is it to install?

Might want to consider this stand instead http://www.wheeldock.com/prod_EZ_Install_Video.asp
This is very easy to install and goes under the Back part of the frame, this stand can can be driven off and you can set it still sitting on the bike, the Harley stand you can't. My wife (135 lbs.) can put our Ultra back on this stand by herself! that when she told me to buy it.. and it's alittle chper than the Harley stand and more stable too. Just my .02 worth.

I have the Harley stand and love it. I put the bike up on it from the drivers seat every time.
It won't go up if the lower adjuster bolts aren't set right, but, putting it up from the side of the bike would be inviting disaster.
I did the instal myself, you have to drop the regulator.
It is kinda heavy to hold up when you are laying under the bike, so you may want a helper.
Regardless on which one you buy, you will really enjot having a center stand. I'll never own an HD without one!

RE: Chrome Display Stand #99002-97A
I had my local indy shop put mine on while I had the bike in for other work, only because it is a lot easier to install when the bike is straight up and down in a wheel vice on a work table.
It took us about 20 minutes to install, remove the regulator, replace the regulator bolts with longer ones, remove a couple off bolts on the crash bar mounts and slide it all together. If you are doing this without the benefit of a lift, then make sure you have a buddy that can sit on the bike and hold it upright.
I have not quite gotten the hang of easily geting it up on the stand though. But I figure once riding season starts I can figure it out.
I will say it is a nice add on for the bike if you have to park in tight spots since there is no longer that "how far is it going to lean over and what is it going to hit when it does" feeling

Thanks, fellas, for your feedback. I did some further research on "what is available" for the HD. Here are some links to other versions of the HD stand. I will opt to go with the HD; I like the "look" and am encouraged by what you have written; thanks again for your help and insight.

Haven't installed one on my 07 yet, but did get a Wheeldock for the garage (and future trailer), and looking strongly at getting the wheeldoc center stand so I don't lose the opportunity to mount a premium oil cooler in the future (not an option if you use the Harley center stand).
Hope you enjoy, you'll never regret it!
