Can one of you good people with an Abba Stand for the R1100s please measure the male (left hand side) part that inserts into the frame?
I took mine into work for a service and went to use it last night only to find the damn thing is missing.
Thanks in advance

Phil,
The bit that slots into the left side is 12mm dia. and about 8mm deep to the start of the taper. Over a horizontal distance of 7mm it tapers up to 27mm dia. to fit the Abba female doofer. This last section is about 15mm deep, making overall depth about 30mm. Hope that makes sense.

Mine stopped in the bike and then dropped out while riding. Least that what I think happened - one day it was there and the next gone.
In a emergency (and with due care) you can prop the bike up by hooking the 'cup' over the swing arm threads:
R1200GS - 'El Bastardo' - The Exploder.
R1100S BCR - 'Flashart the Misguided Missile'.
KTM 990SMT- 'Scratch' - Hoonery Assured.
