Who misses the kickstand?

[markreed757]

I know, I for one do not miss it. I love the fact that I can just park the bike and take off.

I do when I ride a two wheeler! Had some close calls when I forgot.

Don't miss the kick stand but to be honest, I do miss the leaning.

Sure as heck would miss it on my Gunner, Not so much on my T/G..
Besides Harley's don't come with kickstands

The trike, Harley (2 wheeler) and the Bonneville (also 2 wheels) are so different I never have done trike stuff on the bikes or bike stuff on the trike. Have never forgot to put my feet down on the 2 wheelers, or put down the Bonnie's side stand or the Harley's Jiffy Stand.
I sort of wish they would have left the kickstand on our current Goldwing trike. When we had the 1500 the installers left it on. It was hidden below the foot boards, and I would put it down for added security. even if they stole a key or jimmied the lock the trike wouldn't start. And who would check for a side stand down a a trike?

Do I miss the kick stand/jiffy stand, no. Do I ever try to use it every once in a while i will reach down for it. Not as much any more.

What kickstand? Most trikes I've looked at still have their kickstand. I know my old 1500 had one and couple of my friends trikes still have one on theirs. One is a CSC and the other is a Roadsmith.

My 93 GW with MT kit still has both. I could change a tire with it on the center stand .

Sometimes I miss the leaning but in traffic I don't.

I removed our trike's sidestand a week or so ago.

I'm with you on the leaning part. I've replaced the kickstand part with setting the parking brake though.
