I have been working on a center stand for my bike. Currently it is a manual stand however I will be changing it to electric.

As per the results of Rich's investigative work (I confirmed the results  ;) )I changed my rear wheel to a 16" and the tire to a 180x60x16. This combination is 1" shorter overall than the stock 18". After riding Rich's bike I like the gear change, best be quick with clicking through the gears!

We goofed around today checking travel limits on the bike. With a stock 18"x180 the tire makes contact just under the 9 1/4" measurement. It hits on the forward edge of the fender under the seat, an odd place.

With a 16" wheel and a 60 series 180 we did not see any tire contact. The suspension ran out of travel first at 8 5/8". Using the Monroe's and a 1" lowering kit it netted me 8 3/4". So we bolted it together and I took it for a ride. With all of the air out the bike rolls just fine, no contact.



Left side of the bike, swing arm/frame contact point.

Until I get the material I am after I zip tied a piece of foam rubber to the frame where it makes swing arm contact.
