I've got the the centerstand with Jardine Rumblers. I had the Rumblers on first but the only problem I had mounting the centerstand was with the
Rectifier relocation bracket. The holes were drilled too far apart so I drilled another hole in the bracket. Hope this helps.

There is a stop on the stand that keeps it from hitting the pipes when up. If I remember correctly, there is a stop bolt that can be adjusted to prevent the
stand from coming up too far. Try adjusting the bolt all the way out until installed and then re-adjusting it as needed. This is assuming you're talking
about the stands legs coming up and hitting the bottom of the cross over pipes.

foot lever on the stand. It appears to me that it is going to hit the pipe. I decided to ride today instead of working on the stand. I hope I'm wrong but I
don't think it will work. The guy I bought it from didn't bother to send me the adapter plate nor even mention that it was needed. After almost a year
to ship it, you would have thought you would get everything.

Here is a snapshot of my center stand location vs. the factory crossover pipe. This is looking straight down over the front mount bolt for the rear crash bar.
Maybe these will give you some idea as to where the V&H run vs. stock. The brackets on the stand are pretty much centered in the frame, but do just barely
touch the rectifier. Hope this helps.
Stan P.S. Ignore the wet spot underneath. I just replaced the battery and while it was out I changed out the fuel filter also. Looks like I will be going back in to add new hose clamps.

That was perfect Stan! I went out and looked at my pipes and they go back further, under the Passenger peg. The stand will not work like it is. I will have to
do some modifications!
Thanks for all the help! Now clean that Harley mark up!
