Lightweight Centre Stand

Post by Ian5913 »

Your lightweight centre stand...
A square rod passes through the engine plate
This square rod has some bushes on it to space the footpegs and on each side of the engine is a very odd shaped bracket that stops the stand going to far forward these wear as the bike is heavy and the stops are normally a mild steel
Inside the engine plate is a spring, a tube, and a u shaped rod these are to pull & hold up the stand when closed
Understand now good if not (& I wouldn't be surprised) I live in Reading if you want to see one alternatively drop me an e mail and I will send you some photos (Or I will put some on the web site)
