Default Center Stand

I saw some posts about a 600F4 being put on center stand so I though my f4i should also take one... however when I called my dealer they said they couldnt find one either from honda or aftermarket...
Can I put a center stand on my f4i? My major inclination for this is not having to hang the bike when doing work on the rear shock etc. Where can I get this stand? ebay didnt show up anything, so didnt bikebandit.com

Thanks!

That would solve my problem... although I was looking for a proper bike stand, like the side stand. This one's pretty expensive too - is it possible to get a cheaper one?

how about a set of stands?
why would you want a bike-mounted center stand?

Personally, I'm not a fan of stands that drastically change the center of gravity of any motorcycles. I'm just a bit paranoid- but remember you have to be careful any time you're working on a bike especially one with an altered CG.

I would like to remind everyone that King-Cold.com is offering a $50 rebate to any CBRForum members that purchase WheelDocks in the month of November. In terms of stands, I think the WheelDock is the all around best- but then again I could be a bit biased.

Well the center stand seems to be a stock part at least for the f4 in the uk. Dont know if it fits the f4i though.

I was hoping for one stand to let me remove either front or back wheel, or let me work on the front/back shocks.
Anything cheap available?
