I am really surprised at the number of folks who say they have issues getting the CB, or I guess any bike, on the center stand.
Even my 20 y/o, 165 lb, weight lifting son has trouble using the stand on his CB360! He is perpetually annoyed that his over weight, 61 y/o Dad pops it up there instantly.
I was disappointed when I tried to set the center stand while I was still astride the CB as I was able to do with the Yamaha XS11 back then or any number of other bikes I've owned.
But the CB goes right up with only a slight tug on the handlebars and foot pressure on the stands.
I don't think I am using any tricks to do it.
