Bought my Vision a stand after seeing them at our national bike show, I was a bit concerned but the business owner assured me they take a Gold Wing. No worries though they are fantastic, keeps the bike upright in the garage and will be a great help when cleaning it and easy enough to push the bike back out again.

Very nice uknessie.  I made the mistake of buying a Vision centerstand and wanted it remove within 20 minutes of the install.  Big $300 mistake on my part.  A set-up like that would be nice to find here in the States.

Will start a new thread.  Don't want to distract from this one.

They are made in the UK and retail for less than £100 ($170). would have though someone there must make one but it wouldnt cost a fortune to ship either. Be less than the $300 center stand.

I see these Condor wheel chocks at the bike shows all the time.  They make free-standing ones and ones that switch between free standing and trailer/lift chocks.  I almost bought one a week ago a the IMS show.

HTH,

I bought a Condor Chock when I had a Honda VTX. It was fine. Now I have the Vision and I adjusted the chock to fit the Dunlop and I had a tipover! I used the chock on the garage floor and appently I did not center the Vision exactly in the chock ie: the rear wheel and the front wheel were slightly off although all looked and felt OK as I rode into it. I got off the Vision, turned around and heard a crash. The bike with the chock still attached fell over on the left side. Minimal damage to the bike but a row of shelves broke the fall. I think if the fall was not broken, the Vision MIGHT have gove over past the tipovers and right onto its side. I had to get a neighbor to help right the bike. I no longer trust the chock detached from the trailer. Just something to think about if you decide to use the Condor. The cheapie from Harbor freight has a longer base and it probably would hold the Vision better.
