kg4fku Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 For those of you with corbon bags or similar we have a small problem getting or bikes on the center stand (or at least I did). This is because the grab handle is covered by the front tip of the left bag. Here is my solution, and I hope for some feed back as to wether its a good idea. Under te seat there is a bar that extends from side to side. By grabing this bar I was able to put the bike on the stand easier than from the actual grab handle. Is this bar sturdy enough to grab in this manner? I really hope so because the only other way I see to do it is by grabbing the rear passenger grab bar ( a real stretch) and try there.

Northman Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 The cross bar on the subframe is strong enough, but you may want to just use the passenger peg as the extra handle. Might be easier than removing the seat :idea: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dion Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 I just grab the bracket for the left rear passenger peg up high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kg4fku Posted September 5, 2004 Author Share Posted September 5, 2004 I've used the passenger peg before but at 6'1" thats and awkward position for me as I fell I am lifting with my back and not my legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canada0937 Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 I've used the passenger peg, but it is more of a strain on my back. Other suggestions other than taking off the seat would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
