Center Stand

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Gooose, Aug 29, 2015.

  1. Hi Guys. Just got my multistrada yesterday and load to read up on. Had a quick run out on it and did find it quite a noisy engineer and hope this is not a defect and more a characteristic. I should explain. I bought from afar in the uk and base on the low mileage and service history, thought it to be a pretty safe buy. Bonnie bike. But I do need a center stand and see theirs a few to choose from as well as Ducati. Would anyone care to reco mend one.
    Also the immobilizer lights flash very often and figure over a wee while this might drain the battery a bit. Can it be switched off. I felt the bike labour a bit when I started it up. Battery felt low or weak. Am thinking winter time trying to start it, could be an issue. A new battery might be in order. Again any reco's. Thank guys and look forward to your replys. Tax it last night so some serious bonding required today.
     
  2. Is this your first V2 engine bike?

    And welcome Dave :)
     
  3. Hi dave. No I had a suzuki vs 800.
     
  4. I only ask because they do labour when trying to start. Best put it on an Optimate over winter :)
     
  5. Oh without a doubt it'll be getting that. But good to know they have this characteristic. Any advances on a suggestion for centre stand make
