FAQs
What is the main benefit of a centre stand?
A centre stand provides superior stability for parking and maintenance, allowing you to lift the rear wheel off the ground for tasks like chain care or tire changes, and keeping the bike upright even when heavily loaded.
Is this centre stand compatible with my motorcycle?
The SW Motech Centre Stand is bike-specific. You must select the exact model designed for your motorcycle's make, model, and year. Please check the product listing or manufacturer's website for compatibility information.
How do I install the centre stand?
Installation requires mechanical aptitude and typically involves mounting brackets to the motorcycle's frame. Detailed, model-specific instructions are provided with the product. We recommend consulting the manual and potentially seeking professional help if you are not comfortable with motorcycle mechanics.
Will this stand affect my motorcycle's ground clearance?
The design prioritizes optimal angle and ground clearance. While the stand itself is retracted during riding, its specific mounting points are engineered to minimize impact on cornering clearance. However, the overall geometry is bike-specific.
How durable is the steel construction?
The stand is made from robust steel tubing and features sandblasting and powder coating for excellent corrosion resistance and protection against wear and tear, ensuring long-term durability.
Can I leave the centre stand on my motorcycle permanently?
Yes, the centre stand is designed to remain mounted on the motorcycle and is intended for regular use during parking and maintenance.
Does it come with all necessary mounting hardware?
Yes, the centre stand kit typically includes all the necessary mounting hardware specific to the motorcycle model it is designed for. Always verify the contents against the parts list in the installation manual.
Troubleshooting
Stand is difficult to lower or raise
Ensure no obstructions are present. Check that the motorcycle is parked on a level surface. Verify all pivot points are clean and lightly lubricated. Confirm correct installation according to the manual.
Motorcycle feels unstable on the stand
Double-check that the stand is fully deployed and locked. Ensure the motorcycle is centered on the stand. Verify all mounting hardware is securely tightened.
Difficulty installing the stand
Consult the detailed installation manual provided. Ensure you are using the correct tools. If unsure, seek assistance from a qualified mechanic or a second person.
Stand scrapes the ground during cornering
This is unlikely with a properly designed, bike-specific centre stand. If it occurs, review the installation instructions to ensure it's mounted correctly and check for any unexpected frame modifications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation of the SW Motech Centre Stand is bike-specific. While designed for easy mounting, it often requires the removal of existing components and the attachment of the stand using provided hardware. Refer to the detailed installation manual for your specific motorcycle model. It is recommended to have basic mechanical knowledge and potentially a torque wrench. Some installations may benefit from a second person to help hold components or stabilize the motorcycle during the process.
Compatibility: This centre stand is designed for specific motorcycle models. Ensure you select the correct part number corresponding to your bike's make, model, and year. Vehicle Type Approval (where applicable) confirms its suitability for road use in designated regions.
Care: To maintain the stand's appearance and function, clean it regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washing directly on coated surfaces. For best corrosion resistance, ensure the powder coating remains intact. Periodically check all mounting bolts for tightness.
