centerstand opinions

Post by Hedrek » Tue Jun 12, 2007 7:22 pm

I don't have a centerstand. I don't like the idea of a 400 lb moto shearing off my wrist on a lame ass flat tire. But I still don't have a center stand. I like the idea of a bike perched on rocks, or leaned against a tree, etc. But I do hate the image of my hand cut off at the wrist due to some stupid crash. --- ilv2wheels wrote:
