At least you had one to ask...

My 78 has had the centerstand on about 3 times in it's lifespan and that was during winter rebuilds
Never had any problem with fuel fouling
Oh and scrap the vacuum petcocks they are junk and rebuild kits are even junkier :whistle:

Fuel fouling the #1 & #2 Cylinder due to the bike leaning that way, I've seen comments to such effect, although have never experienced it
For tire replacement and chain adjustment I use a jack
If you ever drag the left side foot hoop on asphalt at about 90MPH it will get your attention fast :laugh: , took it off as soon as possible sometime in 1979 and haven't rode with one since and have never missed it :ohmy:

Have had the rear wheel lift a few inches once from a farking great lump in the road doing about 40 - that did get my attention but that was on my old 900 honda - big daggy centrestand on it that stuck out a mile.
One on Zephyr tucks up very neatly out of way - never a worry
