Straight forward. It's bigger than I thought it would be.

Damn.. that thing is huge.

I thought that was the idea? I fitted the Scrambler one as I was camping on soft ground recently - worked a treat. Probably a similar size.

Yes it was stupidly expensive but I couldn't get a Motech one to me quick enough and the others I found looked shite.

A flat, empty beer can will work just as well imho.

(it is far cheaper and comes with free memories of a great campfired evening)

R & G sell a prop stand enlarger for under £36: I don't know the cost of the SW Motech version.
As an alternative to a flat can, plastic prop stand supports are available on eBay for less than £4 and could be carried in a jacket pocket, but as I have had tank bags on various bikes for years ( anyone who owned British bikes always carried a bag for tools spares etc) it has not been a problem to carry it there. Old metal drinks coasters/ redundant ashtrays serve the same function and have no sharp edges

 

[Deano968]

I quite like the fact it's always there on the stand foot. Just kick the stand down and you're laughing. Bit easier than messing with the other options which I have used aplenty in the past. Though budget-wise it shouldn't really be at the top of anyone's list of 'essentials'.

Why not make it cheaper by getting the beer can out of someone else's rubbish bin (trash can)?
