My aftermarket exhaust has a metal plate coming off it so that the centre stand deliberately rests on it with a rubber bung.
Like Bretty i use my centre stand all the time when working on the bike, and i would most certainly be a bit lost without it being there.
I'm fortunate to have access to an air line at work to check the tyre pressures, so even simple jobs like that mean i can quickly spin the wheels into position to pump the tyres up while the bike's on the centre stand, especially as sometimes they're loading a lorry next to me so i need to be done and out of their way as quickly as possible.
