Hi
I have a Dakar and, as you might know, it only has a sidestand. So, how am I supposed to do basic maintenance like chain lube if I can't even turn the back wheel? :?
I suppose there are a few options:
1. buy an aftermarket centre stand (e.g. Touratech)
2. buy a paddock stand or similar 'workshop' jack/lift
3. build my own solution.
Would love to do no. 3, but can't see any time opening up soon
.
No. 2 is cheaper than no. 1, and will work fine in my garage, but what do you do if you have to remove a wheel out on the road.
No. 1: expensive(?). Reduces ground clearance (is this really a significant problem?).
Your opinions are appreciated
