I bought one of these to use with my MV Augusta Turismo and now use it with my 1260 Mutley. Wouldn't say it's the strongest (I wouldn't sit on the bike when it's on it) but it works. I can use it with my R&G rear paddock stand or, if I'm careful, on it's own. You need to ensure that it's adjusted to rock the bike back on the centre stand with the rear wheel only kissing the ground. Lift it onto the rear wheel alone and things become very unstable. I needed the largest pin, 27mm IIRC, for both the MV and the Multistrada.
