Thanks, Noiseboy!

Would any rear paddock stand do? Or is there a specific one (or size) that I need to get? Where would it connect to? (I'll dig up my manual again, I may have missed it...?)

You can buy paddock stands with generic rubber L shaped pads that fit any swingarm which is what you need.

Most bikes have a threaded hole on each side where you can screw in cotton reel shaped bolts. This is much more secure but the Zeros don't have it. I have no idea why.

I tried automotive grease less silicone spray for door gaskets on mine.
Back to super quietness....

You have to re-apply after rain though.
