Oh great! I FINALLY figured out how to get the bike up on the centerstand with ease, and now I've got this to think about ?!?! Have an 05 -- someone tell me not to worry..... :clap: Jay

Yep...wagmans correct...they beefed up the stand with more steel for 04 on. I have been using my centrestand since day one. Even so, I check the stand periodically for cracks, rust etc. nevertheless... :assasin:

Shouldn't this get moved to "POINTLESS/RECURRING THREADS"?

You mean you've found the invisible :assasin: grab area that nobody seems to know about? I didn't find it myself, a co-worker told me about it. And I'm not talking about the pillion grab rail either.
