You will loose about a 1/2" of ground clearance with the stand installed

I ordered one of these today!
If it works I will have to get two more!

It works great.  Hard to install the bolts that go into the swing arm without removing or moving the exhaust on the right side.   Once installed play with the adjustment on the legs so that it is not too difficult to get on the stand.
Takes less space to store bike
Easier to clean
Easier to pack
Looks cool!

Thanks!

I'm going to put the first one on the SERG and if I like it will put one on the Classics.
The bikes look so much better standing up straight!

Chip, does this bolt in on the t-bone?
That is where the J&S jack sits, curious.

Duane;
I do not have the JS jack but the one that I have does work. you need to position it slightly forward but no issues

Do we have a deal or group buy on these?

This stand can be adjusted for standard height and profile lowered bikes.  Since I have one of each I thought I would give it a try. It is chromed and per the comments from HD will not effect clearance.   Anyone else try this product?  91573-06

While I'm waiting on the centerstand to get here the Harley shop printed out the installation instructions for me.
I don't think the lift will be a problem plus if Jim said he has no problem with his that works for me!

Now a hydraulic centerstand, like the Beemers have would be a different story.

Now there is an idea, who has access to indy car parts?

My bike is sitting on the jack now and will be until the salt is gone. Went out to take a picture of how it sits, didn't bother.

If you move the J&S forward enough to clear the dog bone it will be on the up-rise portion of the tube - if the kickstand wasn't mounted there. You could probably squeeze it in just behind the kickstand, but then the rear portion of the jack will be sitting "on" the dog bone (leading edge).

The J&S stability comes in part due to the distance between the two lift plates being near the maximum span possible and still have the bike sitting level on the jack. And, I don't think I would want to move the weight rearward on the jack.

Watch as you lift the bike, the front wheel is off the ground about 1-3 inches before the rear, depending on how you have the bike loaded.

I t does look like it would be possible to use a 2-by on the rear lift plate and do the lift on the oil pan But the the center stand would have to be down, and that would interfere with the drain pan made for the J&S jack.

Chip - Jim is not using a J&S, plus Jim has that fancy schmancy new lift in the shop. If I had one of those bad boys my J&S would be on the "for sale thread"

I don't have one of "fancy schmancy" lifts like Jim but I do have a direct lift and the J&S.
The direct lift stays inside and the J&S can be moved anywhere, even outside.
My J&S will never be for sale.

 

[porthole]

Yep, your right, my J&S is outside as much as inside. Looking forward to your test of the center stand and the jack.

I wonder if the smallish tips will sink into hot pavement ?  Not that we have much hot pavement here.
