Ordered!

 

great buy!

 

not available for Classic?

 

as written above for the Ninet R - Pure - Racer models will be available soon, about 10/15 days and you can also buy them for classic

 

Is this centerstand same as Wunderlich's?

 

Yes. I just got mine from Luimoto today and it's from Wunderlich. Not happy with the fit on my 2017 Scrambler -- it took a lot of extra effort to get it on the bike. Had to grind about 2 mm off of the longer bushing and had to bend the forks forks of the center stand in a bit to get them to fit. I also had to move the clamps around the flapper valve because the nuts where interfering with the center stand getting to its fully stowed position. No complaints with Luimoto, but Wunderlich needs to tweak this a bit for an easier fit on the Scrambler (at least the 2017 model).

 

stop .....! here you are using big words without knowing things. Why not find out before writing something so publicly? are you accusing a company, do you know the repercussions this thing can have ??? !!!!! the tripod is produced by an Italian company, the "X-Ray". the easel was conceived, designed and built entirely in Italy by XRAY.
Wundelich has carried out the German approval for this product because in Germany retailers need it to sell the products. On the first supplies the instructions were photocopies, now the instructions are in color. on the next one the Xray label will be printed on both if you buy it from wunderlich and buy it on my site or from other retailers.The Xray now uses the assembly instructions that Wunderlich did in color.

 

@LUISMOTO.IT thank you for clarifying the origins of the centre stand. I think there was some confusion before as to the origins of the stand and the instructions, it is great that you have clarified this. I expect the members appreciate this.

So to ensure the members know beyond doubt where the sidestand comes from, here is what I think you are saying:

1. the centrestand is produced in Italy by a company called X-Ray.

2. Wunderlich got involved to get the product certified for sale in Germany and also sells the sidestand.

3. X-Ray are using the Wunderlich instructions with Wunderlich's approval.

Is this a fair reflection on what you are saying? Please correct me if I am not reflecting your company's position properly.

I apologize for my lack of knowledge of the English language. all right. Xray designed and built the center stand, Wunderlich created the instructions and approved it. Luismoto is a retailer of both brands.

 

Does anyone know if there is a center stand in the USA available for the BMW UGS?

 

I've messaged you a link as this thread is for site sponsor Luismoto.

 

Hi Luismoto, can you let me know if the center stand will work if the bike has raised suspension? I'm raising the rear +45mm and the front +20mm. I would rather have a center stand installed than modify the side stand to accommodate. Let me know, thanks!

 

Here is my web research:
BMW R nineT Centre Stand
Luis Moto €269
Wunderlich €269

 

Prices for Wunderlich parts in the USA are significantly higher than in Europe. That's why you see guys complain about Wunderlich. Luis Moto is often more than a hundred dollars cheaper, even with international shipping costs included.

 

I will be buying this for my bike's Xmas pressie.

 

BMW R nineT Centre Stand

Luis Moto:
CENTRAL STAND FOR BMW R NINET ande R NineT Pure. The main stand is the most important option of a motorcycle that, strangely, is not included in the standard equipment. Since only a central or main stand can provide safe support, we have developed an even more stable and easy to use main retrofit stand (more favorable lever ratios on the arm for easy machine lifting). Indispensable for maintenance work (changing and checking the oil level), care and, above all, even for fully relaxing the bike. Easy assembly, includes all necessary components. Our main stand is designed for standard suspensions mounted by the R nineT and R NineT Pure. The data: Function Optimal support with any load Perfect leverage ratios for easy lifting Original mounting points for easy mounting and high stability Robust structure Double spring system for maximum safety Powder-coated steel tube with thick walls Includes all mounting components Includes special spring tension tool Easy assembly Technical data Material: steel tube, with thick walls, black powder-coated Precision caliber controlled welding and high quality workmanship Double spring system.

Wunderlich:
The centre stand is the most important option for a motorcycle, but one that for some unknown reason isn't part of the standard series fittings. Since only a centre or centre stand offers real stability, we have designed our retrofittable centre stands to be stable and user-friendly (ideal leverage on the cantilever for easy jacking-up of the bike). Essential for maintenance work (oil changes, oil level checks), care and most importantly for easy loading of the bike. Simple installation, delivery includes all assembly parts

Important blabs:
“..care and, above all, even for fully relaxing the bike.”
“Made in Germany.”
“Function Optimal support with any load”

 

This looks awesome, but can anyone tell me if it will scrape in corners before the footpegs?
I'm already grinding down the "hero blobs" on my pegs so don't want to damage the centre stand or reduce my ground clearance.

 

Your riding and maybe your pee may not be at the same level as others here I feel. We must try harder.

 

Sending to Ireland:
Wunderlich postage: €14.90 - The winner!
Luis Moto postage: €24.70

 

So, has anyone tried it out yet on the "normal" bike?

 

It's interesting that Wunderlich state it's Made in Germany... And that Luis Moto use Wunderlich's description albeit without the bullets and with a bit of extra blab.

 

I just ordered one for my UGS. It will be a winter project along with the Ohlins rear shock.

 

Not really mate, grew up on sport bikes and there's plenty of riders that can humble me.

I think my problem is I try to ride my BMW like my Aprilia.

The R Nine T is actually an absolute blast when leaned over. I feel I can get close to the limit on this bike but I'm nowhere near it on my Tuono.

 

So got the centre stand and installed it but I cannot get the bike up on the stand without 2 people..
There must be an easier way to do this can anyone give some advice...

 

There is quite some discussion and solutions to this in the thread: Centre stand for Scrambler
Have a read through, mainly the later posts towards the end of the thread.

 

Roll the front wheel onto a small bit of wood and it becomes vastly easier. Just an inch or two should do it.

 

I finally got the hang of it..I just put all my weight on the centre stand plate with my foot and it just popped up!!

 

Just came across this great instructional video on how to easily put a bike up, and down - in case anybody still has issues:

The only thing I’d add is: try stepping on the stand (slightly) even when you put the bike back down - it’ll make the movement even smoother and more controlled. When you do this, you won’t even need the “1st gear trick”. And practicing it 20 times in a row is also some good advice.

 

I sent an email to WUNDERLICH regarding the stand and they replied with this.....

Hello Andrew,

It is true that it is quite difficult to put the machine on the stand because the tipping point is not optimal, but there was no other possibility in the construction.
The development is to construct an additional lever that is soon in the program. This should make it easier.

 

Got mine from Luismoto within a few days of ordering. Fantastic quality, perfect fit, even with my Rizoma footpegs. Takes a while to install (2-3 hours). Looks like OEM, very practical to store the bike upright (less space in the garage), & to release the suspension. Very happy with the result. This is how bikes in the 70 looked like ;-)

Extra weight: this is for sure the lowest point of gravity and perfectly counterbalances the few extra pounds of the guy sitting on top... On the track, I’ll compensate through pure skills.

Balance: yes, the majority is in the front, it’s not perfectly 50/50, as with for example the GSs. Also depends on amount of gas in the tank.

Great job, Wunderlich, thanks Luismoto for the prompt delivery!!!
And as far as the lifting procedure goes: Guys, this is really easy if you understand leverage. Put your full weight on the peg, grab the bike by the side frame, lift the bike back and up. With a bit of practice, it’s even a one hand task. No need for 2 inch wood-helpers.

 

I’m very much enjoying the center stand. It took a little finagling to make it fit, but got it on in about an hour. I got mine from Luismoto too

 

Does anybody know if this is compatible with the Wunderlich footpeg lowering kit? Both center stand and footpeg kit appear to use the same common bracketry on the bike (Urban GS)

 

Do you already have the foot peg lowering kit?

 

I would guess it’s not an issue. But here are the detailed instructions. Hope that helps!

 

I have Suburban Machinery foot lowering pegs with the Luismoto center stand. They marry well.

Suburban Machinery foot pegs (1.2” lower than stock).

I recently installed the billet aluminum foot pegs from Suburban Machinery out of Willoughby Ohio, USA. At 6’1” 188 lbs 33” inseam, I will attest that not only are these pegs well made, they look great and are exactly what I needed to bring on a more comfortable ride. I did a search of the...
