I have these on my CBR650R 2023.
They'll be swapped onto my CBR650R when I take delivery in March 2025

They work well unless you need to remove the rear wheel. That’s their big downside.

how would it affect removing the rear wheel?

i understand you have to remove the wheel nut and rear axle, but wouldnt the mount stay in the C chanel, or does it have to come out to remove the wheel or have a chance to slip out?

The axle holds it in, once you remove that there is nothing to keep them from falling out.

oh ok that makes sense, i was guessing that as it was in the C chanel, the weight of the bike on the stand and angle of the fork would help keep it in place. looking at it further i can see that it would most likely slip
