Motohaus do a centre stand kit for you. Can't think of the e-mail address at present but we've just used them for a year trip and they work well.

You could search on German ebay(.de). I picked mine up there - use altavista babelfish for translations/emails. Also picked up pannier frame and panniers. The banks charge you 20 pounds to send euros from the UK, so use paypal if poss, or send cash (registered) if its not too much. Found the German guys friendly and efficient (obviously!).

Hi,
I got a SW Motech one from somewhere down south. It a bit crap though as it doesn't tip the bike back properly and is a bit unsteady. My bike fell forwards off it once. I think you can get Yamaha OE ones, which may be better. Where from though I don't know.
