hi

currently i've got no stand of any type, i just lean the bike up or hang strap from the trailer. generally this is ok but just thinking about getting a stand. useful at home and up @ The Farm you can need to dismount quite a lot which is a bit of hass, also sometimes riding with young kids have to frequently dismount... should i get a kickstand or would that just be plain sacrilege to the CR. what do you suggest?
if triangle/axle stand what height would i want? i see different ones on trademe. someone told me previously to get a fat diameter for the honda. do the smaller diameters not work or are they just not ideal?

cheers

you can get after market stand up to you if you want one i find trees work just as well or turn of the gas and lay it down. As for the triangle stands the fatter ones work better as there is more strength in them had a couple and still have one of the smaller one if you lean on the bike to much they bend bike falls.
