Got a Center Stand & Engine Guards?

[Spyder Eye]

Then you don't need either a rear wheel or front wheel stand. For the rear, it is already off the ground with the center stand. For the front, just push down on the seat and as the front of the bike rises push in some jack stands.

Might be a better alternative to wheel stands and does double duty.

Awesome! I do the same with car stand under the foot pegs...lol Been working great for 2 1/2 years!

Quick question, how's the screen? Digging the rad cover too.

I do miss having a centre stand, but I'm not paying Yamaha $317 for about $50 worth of metal.

I said the same thing about two Pit Bull stands. At least you can use the center stand anywhere.

What brand engine guards are those?

The screen is Puig. Build quality and fitment is superb. Wind deflection is minimal but effective unless it is really windy. Since it was hard to find in the states I bought it from a UK dealer BR Special Tuning It was actually cheaper with shipping than the Givi one from a US distributor. Took about 9 days to get here and they answered my questions promptly. I highly recommend buying from them.

Really??? You guys really are getting schloinged down there!
Yamaha Canada website says $190. I'm thinking that's overpriced.
