[QUOTE="Deroberson, post: 137482, member: 224"] The goal here is to make it easier for my better half, 5'4", 120#, to wrestle, start and park the bike. She can start the bike no problem, find TDC, get is just past and kick and crank.....all on the rear stand, I know this is not preferred. Also, parking the bike, it is cumbersome for her to get it on the rear stand, risky actually. I need a stout proper side stand for parking or a center stand for parking and starting. I have a twin D, and the ease of parking with the lifting handle and cranking on the stand if needed is a breeze. That was my idea for the Comet. I have seen many of Dave Hills center stands and I have this extra D center that I was thinking of using. Thanks for the replies! [/QUOTE]
