So what's a fella to do when the bike he wants doesn't have a centrestand?
Two choices I suppose, there's the pit type stand which flicks under swingarm bobbins, but have you ever tried using one of them on your own with a heavy bike?
Then I remembered something I'd seen on my last visit to the UK. A buddy had his ZZR1400, or ZX14 in our part of the world, sitting on this ABBA stand. Easy and safe to use for one fella unaided.
So I looked up the UK website for ABBA stands, and lo and behold, there's a Kiwi importer/distributor for ABBA stands in the South Island. Once I'd ordered the bike, I ordered the stand...which arrived overnight. Kinda funny having a stand and no bike to put on it for a few weeks....
