Nice piccy, Chris. There's a teeny bit of an optical illusion going on with the MM's smaller front wheel, but I shall let someone else post a link to the relevant Father Ted excerpt!

Scaly, I think we had an exchange of messages when you were hesitating over fitting the Indian stand to Kevin, My 57 Bullet had the alloy centre stand, and had I kept that bike it too would have had an Indian centre stand fitted by now.

But those wretched stands give the game away!

I suppose they could always be painted silver... All my Redditch framed stuff has these stands, I'm happy to sacrifice form for function in this case. A.

Me too Adrian, I was joking. The Indian stand is far superior so much easier to use. I had a 350 with the old alloy stand once and it needed Herculean strength to get it on.
