I just read the post below about the centerstand. I prefer one too. I'm with Badrufus about how to set the bike up on it. Thats the same way I've always done with all my past meriden triumphs. I worked at the Triumph Dealer in Memphis (Jimmy Arnold's..when I was young. He showed me all the techniques). They always had a rear fender rail and buddy bar behind the seat. You just grabbed the handlebar and the fender rail, stepped on the stand and yanked back & right up. That's another part that should have come on the bike. I've seen some pics here of bikes with one installed. Where do you get one? I'm tremendously amazed at the prices of accessories for these bikes. Way out of wack, especially for a little sissy bar and pad... $315.00? You gotta be kidding. Also, seems like some plastic sheet or someting is wadding up under the seat cover. Guess I'll have to take the cover off. Always something.....
