GS taller / stainless centre stand.

What are my options please?........I'm not sure what brands are out there after a quick google.

I got mine from BMW Boxer Toko in the Netherlands. The quality is good and it works very well, but………it is delivered with the stops deliberately oversize and you have to file them to fit your bike exactly. It’s a fiddly job which took me a good couple of hours but the end result was spot on

Interested ... why would you want a taller centre stand ?

It’s quite a lot taller than standard …

Thanks MH..........

Any more for any more?

I've seen some that look a little different to that fitted on bikes on t'interweb.

You could do what I’m planning - get the original made a bit longer.

Or just don’t bother with one.

I'm not sure my shins can live with no centre stand. That side stand!!!!!

I've got extender feet on it now but fancy a properly made longer one, especially if it's stainless.

I've got extender feet on my current centre stand but I want a properly made longer one and especially fancy a bit of stainless bling.

Dear God, how do you keep it so clean with no front mudguard and chunky tyres? I do my best but I can't, with a week of cleaning, get mine anything like that. One ride on a winter road with cowshit and mud and my bike is dirty forever. What's the secret please?


I thought stainless was heavy, and brittle?

Not using it is the secret.
