Does anybody have experience with this SW Motech on their 2000 Girly?

I am the guy that posted the prior video of "putting your bike on center stand". After doing a little research, I have found that my center stand is a SW Motech. My bike is 2001 and is not identical to your 2000. But, I do like the quality of the SW Motech center stand.

Yes, I've heard great things about it. Only if I could find the one for this year... :thumbsup

I have a 2000 885i Girly and ordered the sw Motech stand for the 955 which fitted fine, mind you mine has a Tor can and the collecting box has been removed.
Black 885i Tiger UK based
Orange 955i Tiger Canadian based
Norton 961S never got it, tired of waiting

Thank you John, this has confirmed my decision to remove the collector box. May have to re-gear so I don't lose any torque, huh?

Do you have the bypass pipe?? It came as a kit with the TOR pipe.

You will loose torque but it does pep the motor up.

I don't have a tor exhaust, nor the pipe. I hope to have one made for about $150 next weekend.

It's the pivots that are useless on the Triumph stand, get a SW Motech one loads better.

I have! and it IS!  :wheel  Unfortunately, I had to stiffen up my suspension because the center stand was scraping while cornering 2up. (bike is lowered)

Still fitting a blue flame exhaust on...while leaving the collector box in-tact. Will post a photo soon.
