Take down travel stand .

[c10]

Found it as full size but a take apart unit.
With some trimming, cutting, welding it is now this. A subcompact stand weighing 6.5 pounds and fits in a case with room to spare. Next best thing to a center stand.
Yes one day ill make one that works on a gen 2. I made it as a through bolt design to reduce the risk of slip off, and reduce size even more.

I’ve used the Quick Stand for years on tour. Very small, very light.

Hey C10, a little off topic but how do you carry a second helmet with your Givi bags attached?

I don't . My wife rides her own bike , and all my sons are grown / Marines .

Gotcha. I was just curious about mounting options for when I get mine and need to bring a second helmet for my girlfriend or my son.

That’s what I have on the busa as well, but wouldn’t dare take the rear wheel off with the bike suspended on it. Not like I’ve never had the need to do that while out on the road though.

No but I’ve adjusted the chain a couple times. The key is to loosen the axle nut prior to lifting and (always) use the Velcro strap on the brake lever so the bike remains planted. Lubing is a snap.

That is slick c10.
Medic, u can always use a net and attach a helmet to the rear seat for travel. Works well. Obviously when u leave it unattended, u will need to lock it with the teather.

Just so everyone is Aware there are two helmet hooks under gen 2 rear seat for securing helmets from theft using the D rings

Is the center stand not an option for Gen 2?

 

[GAmedic]

I know about the two helmet hooks. Use them all the time. I dont know how accessible they are with Givis.

They removed frame mounting points on gen 2 so yes there is no option like gen 1
I have even considered putting all my parts / engine in s gen 1 frame for a center stand
