Triumph America Centerstand
NEW FROM RIVCO!
This center stand bolts directly to the frame and does not reduce corning or ground clearance. It lifts the rear wheel 1" off the ground and has large foot pads to prevent sinking into the ground or soft asphalt. It includes a hide away, nylon web strap grab handle for smooth, easy operation. Black powder coat. Makes cleaning, storage and maintenance much easier. Fits All Years of the Triumph America. PART NUMBER: TA001.
First Production Run available March 26, 2008 (This is almost sold out so be sure to get yours on order right away!)
Please contact Stephanie at 1-888-801-8222 x 103 when placing your order, pricing or for futher information.
RIDE SAFE!

 Looks very nice and clean. 
How does the grab handle fit around aftermarket pipes?
Any interference accessing the oil filter?

Those look like Specialty Spares Long Cannon pipes. Quote:

With a Team Triumph sticker right above? Sceptres would be more likely, no?

I was thinking: "what good is it if it dosn't even lift the rear wheel?" but realized the it's on a tarp! LOL  I REALLY like it. They did a fantastic job but I won't pay that much for a center stand. edit:don't most modern center stands have TWO springs?

Team Triumph are the makers of the Sceptre pipes. I can't tell for sure, but the sticker made me think they were Sceptres.

Whatever they are they are stainless. SS are chrome, no? Sceptres stainless? Stand looks nice!

I assume the Grab Handle is to pull it up onto the stand. Does it fit across the saddle like they used to or what ? 
If you do it today you MIGHT regret it. If you CAN'T do it tomorrow you WILL regret it.

The strap is made to attach under the seat and tuck under the side cover for something to grab a hold of and lift the bike on to the stand like the hand rails on a Metric bike.

Come to think of it, wasn't the cross strap on the Bonneville dual seat for the pillion to hold onto as well as lifting it onto the stand ?

Great design. I'm sure it took a while to get it right! But, for $260 bucks I'll use the side stand and my $79 Sears Craftsman motorcycle jack.
Just my opinion
Thanks

I called Rivco this AM regarding my the status of my order; I was told the stands are in & they plan to start shipping next week. Expensive? Yup. Worth it? Time will tell.
