    Center Stand EZ-LIFT

    For those of us with center stands (from Honda) as well as Goldwing owners who find it difficult to raise their bikes on centerstand, I found an interesting product that can help:

    It's amazing what you can do with a little bit of extra leverage!

    This just might be the solution for those of us who removed the seat grab rails because of seat modifications.

    Just wonder if that permanent mounted piece would drag in a turn?

    The problem is where to go with the leverage part. He said to store it in the side bag but when it has to be unlocked to open it seems like a bit of a pain.

    If you drag the center stand you have way more problems to worry about !!!

    How often do you really put a bike on the CS ?


    Seems like a good tool as the aging process catches up to us !

    I have a serious back problem, but I can still put my bike on the centre stand by rolling the rear tire unto a piece of wood. A 2x4 works well but will not allow you to turn the rear tire, so if I need a free rear tire I use a narrower piece of wood.

    Are you gonna have that piece of wood on the side of the road for a flat repair?

    I ordered one and have it installed. I have one knee replaced and will have the other replaced after Russellville and I really do like it! Not a struggle at all to get it up , on the center stand, that is. I have the key mod and just leave my bag unlocked most of the time so it is no problem to put it in the left saddlebag.
