Why would anyone spend nearly $600 for a stand like that when you can get an SW-Motech centerstand (which stays with the bike) for less than half of that?
I think the center stands are ugly on this bike and I personally would never install one. I use the spare tire jack from my car to do the chain and will probably get a stand like that (or a pitbull, etc.) for storage once I get a house/garage. If I am on a long trip I just roll the bike to do the chain...takes a little longer but not that big of a deal.
I like it though, it looks well made and would allow easy access to most of the bike without two stands. It is a little pricey but if it is a good quality and will last forever it may be worth it.
I have a Bursig stand with the optional wheels. The stand is great for working on a bike or moving it around the garage. The unit is top notch quality and works perfectly every time. As long as Bursig is around you should be able to keep using the lift with different bikes by getting a new mount plate and bike sleeve.
Other than putting on the wheels (some of the stand arms needed internal filing to accept the wheel arms) there's no assembly required. You will have to mount a sleeve to one of your rear engine mounts to accept the Bursig lift. The gold coloured sleeve stays on the bike and I'm not crazy about the colour. If the sleeve were black it would effectively disappear.
The stand has very little ground clearance and it will get hung up if you try to use it on an uneven surface. It also takes a bit of practice to master the balance the bike with one hand, lift the side stand and maneuver the Bursig into position dance.
Storage for the stand can be an issue, but I have it going under and to the side of a tool chest so it's out of the way.
The Bursig ships in a big box and is secured to the inside of the box by way of heavy ties - a simple, effective technique. However, the wheels in my shipment were not secured internally and bounced all the way across the Atlantic Ocean. Some dings on the Bursig's very tough paint, but no damage otherwise. The shipping box had a hole in it and if the hole was much larger the wheels could have disappeared.
Overall, I'm very happy with the stand. I just hope Bursig sticks around and makes a plate for my new 2018 Speed Triple.

Thanks for that Jimbo - you have the new frame, hadn't recongnized immediately from prior post until I saw pics
I was curious with the 05 - 10 whether the main mount is is same location as yours (engine mount) or whether they used the pocket in the frame where the subframe mounts:
This pic shows the difference of my model vs the 05-10 - but the swing-arm spindle is actually direct swap
But question is - does it use that mount point immediately above the spindle, or the engine mount, same as your '11?

Thanks to both for your pictures - have reconfigured so you can see side-by-side in correct orientation for everyone's easy reference
I'd also like to add that the 05-10 should* also fit earlier model 955 Speed Triples and Daytonas:
from 2002, they used the same swing-arm spindle and the 05-10 should fit directly;
the one on mine shown above (97-01 models) can be directly replaced by the later type (loads available on Ebay, Sprint also uses same one);
alternatively, the lower spindle dowel could be machined to fit the smaller hex fitting, but I think swapping the spindle will be better as the dowel will go deeper.
* NOT verified, but to all extents & purposes looks to be the same.
I just found the very similar, almost identical, motomfg paddock stand and it is much more reasonably priced at only $450 including the optional wheels ($340 without)! That I might just have to do!
