Nope! I carry a standard biker's pipe and jack stands.

Good Luck!

I have a bikers pipe too. It looks like a spark plug and I keep it in my tool pouch.

I have to dissagree that any bike can be put on the centerstand by lifting!!

We lifted this one with a front end loader.

Can you post a picture of it.
That could come in handy.

Not quite an NGK but it fires just as good.

Maybe you should print the address of the company who makes these...I think there are a few around here that might want to take a serious look at one of these in the next few years! LOL

Using the propper technique, it is a simple process to place any bike on the center stand.

Just as it is stated above, momentum is your friend.

100% correct. You don't need wood ramps, or gadgets to master using a center stand. It's a matter of using your body weight correctly.

People try to pull back too much when the trick is to step down firmly with their foot on the foot lever. They get scared the bike will tip over.

Left hand on handle bar.

Right hand on frame / grab bar...whatever it has on the right side.

Right foot on center stand tab.

Push tab down to touch, then stand on it with all your body weight
