ralfyguy,
I couldn't find your email to send you the center stand pics, but what I did was took a picture of the original pic with my phone, so it's not very clear like the original ones.
Well, What you can see in the pics is a center stand from an small scooter that I found in a junk yard , I cut some corners of the base stand in order to make it lighter and to fit better below the engine; I use the Bolt (10x180) #23 in the Crankcase schematic diagram as a stand shaft( used one from the same size but 1/2 longer), then I cut a piece 7 inches long from a 1/4 aluminum angular , and everything fit tight perfectly. Pardom for my english , I am a Cuban rafter.

The rack belongs to a Harley , I found it in a place close to Fort Lauderdale Florida called Biker's Inc. It's like a motorcycle salvage yard, and there are a lot of them on the floor.
Attached to the rack there was like a mini air tank, I believe it is for the bike suspension; I put it away and used the rack wich is very strong by the way.

I like it It looks like you drilled a couple holes in the side rails.  Did you go all the way through the fender?

Yes I did, actually the front bolt is attached directly to the fender with an spacer wrapped in rubber, but with 3 bolts for each side you can imagine the strenght of the thing. Also the person who seat in the back can hold her hands to both sides rails of the grill.

If I hadnt seen it, I never woulda believed it,,I didnt think there was room under there for a C/stand,
You guys arent having clearance problems? Draggin in corners? Hanging on speed bumps?

Any problem at all , cero vibrations, actually my center stand comes with two springs and I adapted and drillled two pices of hard rubber wich I glued to the center bolts that hold the stand to the alumminum angular, and nothing moves or vibrate down there.

Thats a very nice job,, however, for my personal comfort, I would sure like a piece closing the front of that thing & have it angled so if I DID manage to snag it on something, it would skip off & not stop the bike,
