Hi. I just installed a center stand on my 1978 cb550. I had to remove two pipes in order to get it in there, but that was great practice. All else went very smoothly and everything seems to be in the correct position. However, trying to put the bike ONTO the center stand is a totally different story. I've watched several videos that all show about the same process and I have followed the steps very carefully. But instead of going back on the stand the bike just rolls backward with my push. I'll try lifting a lot more but I'm thinking maybe theres a trick. Or maybe, as I've heard, some bikes are just not good with center stands.
Thanks a lot for any help.
