the one thing I just swapped on my 2012 was I removed the ram horn center stand and installed the new straight stand from the 2013 f800GS, it doesn't feel as solid when up on the stand but the extra inch you get for your foot on the stand between the passenger peg and the straight legs make it a breeze to pop up on the stand. The older design may have been more solid once up on it but it was a struggle to get open with Enduro boots(or any for that matter) and you didn't have much leverage to pop it up once you found it.
