Sorry, but you're wrong.

Basic geometry. Think about the size of the triangle between the contact points on both the side stand (front wheel, rear wheel, side stand) and the center stand (front wheel, and 2 center-stand points).

Side stand is several Times more stable than the center stand.

            • I know that both M and I have put a bike on both the side and center stand — jfadool, Mon Jan 25, 2010 2:44 pm
