    Just thought I'd post some pics of a few mods on mine.
    The center stand is sw motech, expensive and a bit fiddly to fit but once done it is well worth it, makes any maintenance task easy.
    The power socket l copied from my old BMW, really good for phone charging or posting a sat nav.
    The exhausts were second hand off eBay and improve the sound but too noisy with the baffles out, massive weight saving over the originals though.
    I have a few more plans for the future and will post some more pics.

    Hi Speeder, I knew a centre stand kit was available but think you're the first I've noticed that's fitted one.
    I'm interested in your thoughts, was it easy to fit / where does it bolt up to / any problems with ground clearance, or more likely, clearance between heel and lever when ball of foot is on peg (that always annoyed me on the Multistrada). - We need more pictures :)
    Might get more viewings if you re-post on the Speed Triple section here.

    Hi Col,
    The stand is a really solid job that bolts up t the rear engine mount. Fitting is a bit fiddly but easily possible for the average guy...just follow the instructions.
    No issues with ground clearance, I don't think it would be possible to touch it down on a corner. No problems with boot contact either, it is all well out of the way. It makes ownership so much easier for wheel removal chai maintenance etc. I am surprised more people have not gone for them.
    I will take some more pics tomorrow and post them in the ST section ,as you suggest.
