A lot easier than it appears.
Go to homepage and look under "Tech Tips"
Click on Voyager XII ,than scroll down to "How to use Voyager XII centerstand.The XII and 1300 stands are the same except for the weight.
Once you do it a couple times You start to use it more often.I often suggest you crank up the rear shocks before your first attempt just to make it easier but its really not necessary.

Also make sure you have the bike in neutral before you attempt this. I had a problem last weekend getting my XII on it's center stand until I realized it would not go because it was still in gear. Apparently it won't roll up on without it being in neutral.
For Voyager XII Manuals click the link below.

If that's the case, maybe this would help:Me Again wrote:The XII and 1300 stands are the same except for the weight.

83 Wouldn't that mean he's working with a 1300?

Re: GETTING THE BIKE ON ITS SHOW STAND? VOYAGER 83
Hey 187 I had the same problem a few weeks ago and these guys helped me out. Now it's a piece if cake. The first time I tried it I could no where near get the beast on the center kick stand, now I know the trick. I thought I must be losing it. Why can't I get the old girl up she's truly a heavy beast but I'm getting use to her. I love the smooth ride and the roominess. Just like a cadillac.
