I got an answer from Dave at tecbikeparts saying they are not affiliated with Norman Hyde and their products are not the same. He didn't know how much force it took to lift an America on their stand but said no one had complained and they offer a full refund if you are not satisfied.

I also saw a center stand on the fast eddy site at http://www.fasteddysports.com/?page_id=3&product_id=27 that has an arm more like my old 305's stand that you can step on to help lift the bike, but it is also $100 more than the tecbikeparts stand. I might consider buying tec's and adding to or replacing its arm if it is too heavy for me.
