anybody put on a center stand on a duracell? and what do think

[SBB]

I have centerstands on three bikes.
They are great!
The existing centerstand will not fit an 09 though.
But soon I hope!

I have this one on my 08 SEUC.  Works very well.  They make a couple of different models - if you have lowered your bike you need to let them know.

Wheeldock EZ has a new center stand for 09 models.
Look at their web site.

I also have one on my 08 SEUC. Made by a company in Oklahoma and I love it. I hardly ever use the Jiffy Stand.

Thought about it for my 06, but decided against it.  Extra weight.......and you can definitely see it.....down or up.  If I need the bike upright, I'll put it on the Handy Lift or on the J&S jack.

I posted this on the other CS thread, but just in case:

I bought the Rivco adjustable CS for my '08 SEUC to use as a "ride-off" stand, but because I've lowered the bike, the CS is too long, even when the adjustable feet are all the way in.

Passenger footboard made it very hard to get on the lever.

I called WheelDock to see if their CS-3 (for F/R lowered bikes) would work--they asked about type of lowering on my bike, then said "Get the CS-4." (Not listed on their web site).

BTW, Rivco didn't give me any hassle about returning their CS--they even called me to give me the Return Authorization.  Good customer service.

Got my WheelDock CS-4 and installed it on my lowered SEUC3.  "Ride" report:

1.  Installation: I had to have extra hands to hold the stand in place while starting the bolts, b/c I couldn't find anything the right size and shape to hold the 'nut w/ centering washer' in place  (see the install video at http://wheeldock.com/prod_EZ.shtml) to see what I'm talking about).  Install went fine then.

2.  Function:  Works great.  Much easier to get a foot on the lever than with the Rivco.  The feet are a much better shape than the Rivco to let them go down and "plant" themselves, and it's very stable when down.  Works great for ride-off.

3.  Conclusion:  Perfect for me and my situation.  I'd definitely do it again, and the price is good, too.

I have the Wheel dock also and it works well.

Easy to put the bike up on the stand even while still seated on the bike and then you can just drive off when you want.

Haven't heard of this or seen it.  Do you have pictures of it on your machine both deployed and stowed?
