As for the feel of a short wheel base I added a link to the chain!
Youer Seeley indeed look taler as it needs a whole battery under side stand.
Centre stand only mounted when doing work on bike and kept upright for that with a strap up round the alternator!

It was clearly built to be raced at Monza!

Thank you for the nice comments, much appreciated.

Now, what I really need is a four foot long sidestand....

I have seen an adjustable side stand recently and i cant remember where, but they do exist, however to lengthen a side stand would be easy enough
