Put bike on centerstand

[Frankie_imp]

Lol this thread started because one forum member was having issues putting his bike on the centerstand and had to have a neighbor come over and help him get it up. Funny thing is, I don't think he ever told us if he got it figured out. Hope so. He sure got plenty of advice in this thread lol.

Lol! I came on looking for the exact same question, as I’ve just test ridden one and tried ( and succeeded ) to put it on the centre stand. Not as easy as some but I managed. I thought I’d check for technique as there’s no obvious grab handle which would have helped.
Now what I really want to know is how do you get it off the centre stand as I didn’t try that!

Climb on. Start her up and engage first gear. Lean back so that rear wheel is grounded. Give it some beans and release the clutch. It will probably come off the stand...
