Title: All I want for Christmas is a center stand, a center stand, a center stand...

Yes, a center stand for my 08 1200 Sport. Original owner decided not to put one on and now i wish everyday for one. That's the only thing I want for Christmas! 

Any Norge, Breva 1100, or 1200 Sport owners who may have removed their center stand and it's now gathering dust... OR,  you were thinking of taking yours off to reduce weight,  Pleeeease PM me ... so I can wish you a Merry Christmas with $$$!

Do you know of anyone who's crashed one ? I'd feel bereft if mine wasn't there. (Norge).

We V7ll owners share your desire. I'd love to be able to check my oil as simply as I did without the palaver of chocking the bike up, checking it's vertical and hoping I've got it secure.

And while I'm at it, self-cancelling indicators, adjustable levers and a gear indicator would make it onto my wish list.

The worst fifty bucks ever shaved off the price of manufacturing a new bike.

 My 1975 Suzuki GT 550 even had a gear indicator. And self canceling turn signals made their debut in 1976 on some Yamaha motorcycles.  I've been told the center stand kid for my bike don't longer is available so I have to order the parts separately. That's why I was hoping someone would have a used one and I could buy.

This is a very cheap option.  Not sure how safe it is.

It's the reason that I keep riding my 34 year old Le Mans III !
