cliverlong Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Hi, I have had a look around and the XVS250 only seems to be provided with a side stand. In London, parking areas are very tight and a sidestand results in the bike wanting to take up to 2 bike spaces. Does anyone know of a custom centre (center) stand for the XVS250? Thanks Clive Long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 IIRC, the XVS series does have mounting holes for a centrestand. My 650 did... I've never seen one mounted, though. Just pull in nice and close to the bike on your right, shimmy/wiggle around their sticky-out bits and then put it on the sidestand. We have m/c parking bays here that are under 3' wide and most Cruisers manage it without a problem... even the big 1900s. You'll get the hang of it soon enough. Part of the price you pay for having such a sexy bike, I'm afraid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Yer the XVS range does have a bracket for a center stand but dont have them fitted. your best bet is to mesure the gap of the bracket and go to a local scrap yard and find a bike which its center stand will fit your bike. If not im sure in the deepest darkest parts of London there must be a metal shop that will fabricate one up for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 That is a bit pricey, its only holding up a 125 not a rocket 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
