I've had the side stand shortened on my 12GSA to compensate for the shortened suspension. The centre stand is a little trickier but would like to know the length of a 12GS centre stand to see whether it's easier to swap or modify the existing one. If possible, measure from the centre of the pivot to the foot of the stand please. I've asked my local dealer but they've yet to give me an answer - given up on them really. Thanks in advance.
 
When i fitted the Ohlins to my 12 i removed the centre stand to do this mod,
( ohlins are -28mm ) where the top cast bits are welded into the tubes i used the grinder to remove the welds, chopped 18mm from the tubes cleaned up the cast lugs stuck them in the vice to fatten as was,slapped um back and welded up. lick O paint black for iron work and Bobs your wotsit. :thumb
 
Thanks for the replies everyone. So, a GS centre stand from pivot point to the end of the stand is 325mm? I've just measured my GSA and that's 345mm. Only 20mm longer than standard? Does that sound about right?
