Centerstand Lifting Handle

[Hmm]

Anybody install and use a centerstand lifting handle on their bike?
The passenger grab handle seems to be too high on my 08 Wee Strom and I'm trying to gain some leverage.

Yes, my BMW F800ST only weighs about 400 lbs, but the way it is set up, it was just about impossible for me to get it up on the center stand. I made a grab handle in a more convenient location. Now it is pretty easy to get up on the center stand

Thanks for the pics Randy. I found one that I have coming from Revzilla that mounts to the passenger peg bracket. It's made for a different bike than mine but if you use longer bolts, it will work. The handle just looks like it's part of the frame and forms a loop that a person can grab..

My old Vstrom 1000 was hard to lift onto the centerstand. My Africa Twin is much easier. I think there's some geometry going in that makes it either easy it hard.
