Anyone here in UK tried one of these:

Seems like a great idea but would like to see one before forking out around £280 delivered!

I used it when I had the GS air-cooled. It has 3 different lengths to set the stand to suit your chosen parking spot's terrain.
Sometimes when you are fully laden with luggage, you may wish for your bike to be parked more upright, so you select the kickers longer length. Pretty well made too!

More over priced gear for Beemers

Its a great item ! Had it on an air cooled and now on the LC. It is very well made and once you see it working and how well its made you will find it very fair priced !

I have one. Was fitted to my previous air cooled GSA where it worked well and was very useful. I have not yet fitted it to my LC, it seems less urgent as the bike stands more upright on the OEM sidestand than my previous bike. I expect I will get around to it before too long. It's good and strong, I was quite happy to stand on the peg to mount the bike when the thing was in its "telescope open" positions and never had any problems.
