Does anyone out there have any ideas about how to elevate the front wheel on a C650 to enable wheel removal - eg for fixing a flat - on the roadside? I have seen a gadget called a trail stand, which enables you to pivot the bike on its side stand and then use the trail stand as a prop to keep the front wheel off the ground. This item is used by off-roaders but the stand needs to be plugged into a convenient hole in the bike frame or sump-plate. Nowhere on the C650 that I can see.
Mind you, in 56 years of bike riding, I have never had a flat tyre on a road bike! (tempting fate here, I know. Big Time!)
