So, are you actually using one of these stands? I'm aware of them, but a bit hesitant ordering from the US. Also, it doesn't have a lever to step on, so I'a afraid the bike will be hard to lift onto the stand.
The tank is a bit fiddly to fit to the SE. You have to make adapter brackets front and rear, tilt the oil cooler forward almost 45° and lower the rear of the mudguard to make space for the cooler.
Definitely worth it: 500km before going onto reserve!
Disadvantage: the breather hose makes fitting a tank bag a pain. The expensive lockable filler cap that I got with the second tank (used, though) fell to pieces on the first rough piste I did.
I intend to compile instructions on how to fit the tank when I find the time. They will be posted on the DR650 Yahoo group as files.

Salut from Southern France, the bikers' paradise,
