Yep, the lack of main stand on mine has always bugged me, but not enough to warrant buying the bloody expensive genuine article, or overcome the few bad reports I’ve read on the cheaper alternatives.
I was offered one for £150 when I bought my bike from the dealer, but didn’t have the spare cash at the time.
I get by with a paddock stand at home, and a bit of wood to prop up the off-side while away.
These days I do so few miles it’s not an issue, though if I found one at a ‘suitable price’..
