    I have a centre stand fitted. I wait till I am completely out of fuel and then clean the chain. This way I  can easily get the bike on the stand.  :001:

    I usually do it every 2 weeks.

    Well I'm 5'10" and 12 stone and holding the bike upright while trying to get it up onto the standing is a bit of struggle.  It's the only time the bike feels heavy for me.  Will keep trying and chat to the mechanic about it at the first service. :027:

    When I first fitted the centre stand, it took some effort to get the bike on and off it.

    But it got easier over time, almost as if the springs were too strong, and stretched a bit by leaving the bike on the stand overnight  few times.

    I am a short arse at only 5' 4". I :001:
    I find it really difficult to put it on the stand as mine is fitted a bit to the rear of the bike. The only way I can get it on the stand is when the tank is empty.

    I can flat foot the bike without any issues with both feet. No need to lower. The bike is also very light and fantastic for a short person.
