Paddock Stands to fit new GS1200

[newtoobmbikes]

Other than an official BMW stand (quoted over £170) anyone know of a make of paddock stand to fit rear spindle on GS1200.

Given that the 1200GS has a centre stand, why do you need a paddock stand for it?

I also have a K1200S which has exactly the same drive systems as the GS, but does not have a centre stand. I want to remove the rear wheel for cleaning purposes and tyre replacement.

Would I be right in saying the drive for the two bikes is not on the same side? And with the way paddock stands work it would require a different stand per bike anyway?!

And this week's award for spouting complete drivel goes to the lasr posting,because if you have ever seen the paddock stand then you'll know that its been designed for both bikes

 

[ROLLINSDAN]

Apologies for the drivel. Maybe putting your hand in your pocket to post on the forum may allow one or two bum comments?! May the force be with you.

I've been making some inquiries myself, due to the fact that my new K1200S has no center stand. So far I've only located only two sources; BMW and "AndersenStands" in Australia. Both are overpriced, in my view. Pit Bull doesn't have one currently, but is coming out with one in two weeks. The price will be $179, which is about 1/3 of what BMW wants for one of their stands.

I've just got a K12S, so have also been investigating.

Anderson Stands (Australia) do two types, the normal one being £143 including shipping to the UK, which takes approx 3 weeks.
