Lastly, the Muzzy is designed to increase performance a bit, sound good, and look good. One way it looks good is by really cleaning up the back of the bike; with the stock exhaust cans gone the swing arm is fully visible. If you leave the centerstand on, it will be quite an eyesore.

Without meaning to discourage anyone from trying, it's probably more trouble than it's worth to keep it. You can buy a nice [[Supporting Your Bike While Servicing|swingarm stand]] for about $70-100 though, which will let you do most of the maintenance the centerstand allows. The only time you'll probably still use the centerstand is when you're doing rear suspension work; the stand can be loosely attached temporarily with two 17mm bolts, and put back in the parts bin when the work is done.
