Just bought the last center stand from Rivco today. $450. Includes both L & R grab rails. Costs more in CAD, but worth it.
They are taking names for the next production run.

Installed rivco center stand six years ago and use it all the time, really helps when cleaning or doing repairs. I couldn't believe the bike didn't come with a centerstand. Paid 460.00 dollars back then, very expensive. Use a piece of 2x6 to make raising the bike easy. The center stand and my cruise control are the best accessories I have added.

Just spent 3 years with the GW GL1500 which comes with a center stand. Can not see myself paying someone to work on my bike, just because I can't get the tires in the air.
I know I couldn't get the Valkyrie onto the center stand without using a 2x4, but I now know how to do it, so can't wait to get it mounted on my bike.
I missed the earlier center stand for sale, 2nd emailer, and also the CC John was selling. Would like to have had them both.

Not sure if you are referring to the center stand or rails, but both should be installed. The grab rails are great for strapping items [ e.g., a case of beer] to the rear seat.
