This morning I removed the Gen 1 center stand and installed the Gen 2 center stand. The installation actually was very easy. The most important aspect is the orientation of the spring. Hook the back of the spring so that the hook is facing down. This allows the spring to mount on the centerstand easily. If the orientation is reversed (hook facing up) it is very difficult.
I am amazed at how much better this Gen 2 centerstand works. I will probably now use the centerstand much more.
