Unfortunately, no.
They are like the unicorn of oldwing accessories.

 

[joedrum]

yes they are im glad to have one

 

[julimike54]

I don't think one will fit with the spoiler I have, going from memory that's why I don't have one.

I have a couple of standard's, if they won't fit the Interstate, :yes: so i need at least two. :headscratch:

That is great news! Congrats!! :clapping:

This is the Bates ride off stand. I also have a Wingleader ride off stand that fits in place of the original center stand. But the one I have is for the '80' - '81 model with the taller wheels. I tried it on my '82 and it is 1/2" too close to the ground. If the bike were 1/2" higher (like the '80- '81 models) it would work great!

I can't see details but Joe's stand is mounted considerably different than McGovern's pic.

 

[slabghost]

Yes they are very different in how they are mounted.

 

[mcgovern61]

Is it possible that his is different because it is a 1000 frame vs mine is an 1100? The stand itself looks and operates exactly the same other than the mount.

Joe's looks like it extends outward more than yours, more like a kick-stand does.
Operation is the same I guess and both look plenty stable.

 

[slabghost]

Frames are much the same. So I'm guessing the stands are different models or different manufacturers.

 

[joedrum]

id say mines was made early on as it mounts where a lot of crash bars mount ...and i think they revised them later to deal with crash bars ..like jerrys

Just to clarify:
Are you saying the Bates ride off C/S would not fit your 1982 because it was too close to the ground or were you saying this about the Wingleader stand. The one I bought though no brand information was listed looks identical to the Bates model in your picture.

The Wingleader stand.

Thanks for the confirmation.

This is the Bates ride off stand.

Got it on and adjusted.
This thing is awesome, super easy on and off with a wider stance for more upright stability.
Thanks for posting the picture of yours and cluing me in to "a better mousetrap,"
