When I purchased my K5 (the late model one) it did not have a center stand. The guy I bought it from had lots of parts and so put one on for me. It worked but was always too short. Didn't properly lift the bike up but looking (eyeball) at other CT's it looked like the right stand. Anyway I purchased another stand on eBay that came off a 1974 K5. Wow, it is perfect! Didn't know what I was missing...Until I got my 2nd 1974 and saw the difference. I guess that there are different sizes...even though they appear the same.

Live and learn.
