What is this?

[Yol Bolsun]

Was browsing thru Spyderwolf's GC The Park Bike Show album. What the heck is this:dontknow: and should I have one for my Spyder?

 

[mdimaline]

wheelchair holder of sorts?......just a thought!

Yes, everyone should have a kickstand with plate.

:dontknow: But there just has to be a story behind it's developement.

Speaking of Spyderwolf......... Is he still alive ??? :dontknow:

 

[Bob Denman]

I believe that he checked in a couple of weeks ago... There was a thread concerning his whereabouts...

That's for people who miss the Motorcycle feel,
After riding two wheelers for years, It just seems wrong to park the Spyder and get off without dropping a kickstand [or sometimes a bike]

I believe that is a picture of the conformal kickstand. This especially designed accessory has a built in (user deployable) plate to prevent the kickstand from sinking into soft soil. An optional inflatable pad can be purchased in case of water landings, and will keep the bike afloat until its occupants have evacuated. Please note that the inflatable pad is a dealer-installed option.

Update: As of 12/01/11, there will be a right-side kickstand available for all you left handed people however, the plate will be a little bit smaller to accomodate the exhaust.

Any questions?

:roflblack: Well I can't think of any. Great explanation! :clap:
Oh wait... I DO have one... Can the inflatable kickstand pad (The one for water landings!) be used as a personal floatation device if everything starts getting "ugly"? :yikes:

 

[mooneych]

Optional flotation device

Awaiting FAA approval... ray:

If he is, I hope he is just giving us a cold shoulder and nothing serious. Georgia riders are headed for Augusta tomorrow, hopefully he will be there.

 

[Yol Bolsun]

Alive and well.

Saw Spyderwolf yesterday. He is alive and well. Suspect he will rejoin us in the not too distant future.
