Yes, the kickstands suck. Kind of a drag if he doesn't know the bikes and no one at the dealer cautioned him about using the stand only on level, (or preferably), slightly up-sloping ground. There is a reason why people use proper roll-around stands at home for the bikes. Sorry to hear.

Actually the retail was $35K, and he got it for 5K off.
I do not know but it had all the good bits. Looks nothing like a regular 1098, it has
tons of great parts!
He knows what he is doing. He has a few world class race bikes in storage back in England, and he use to race Damon Hill back in the early years.
He also has one of those enduro looking Ducatis as well' both new. Cool stuff but serious cash and I can only enjoy from a distance....;-)
