Kickstand

[Mr. Wright]

This is for those of you who are tired of putting a block under your kickstand. A guy send me his kickstand with a picture of how high of block he uses.
So here is our subject matter for today.


Started by welding a jig to the table, so I could make sure the foot was pointed in the right direction, when welding it back up.



Passed the point of no return.


Drilled a pilot hole in the foot.


Did the same for the leg.


Made a piece to go in the middle.


Welded it up.


Turned it back down to size.


Ready for the chrome shop. Hopefully Terry will post a picture of it on his bike.

Super work. Are you getting into the kickstand business?

I may be broke -- but I won't ever be that broke!

That is awesome! Great job on that fix!

It's a shame they designed the these stands so short, not the worst screw up.

I did add a foot to my stand.

 

[nvcollins]

My stand is so short, I would have to add two feet to mine.

How much you charge to do that?

Mr. Wright, it looks great can't wait to get it chromed and try it out on the Mastiff. Check is in the mail.

That is super,

I want one, how do I get one?

 

[Mr. Wright]

Let me get with Eric, I have an idea

 

[Mr. Wright]

Eric said they are working on a longer kick stand, but it is still about a year out before they get any. So I have acquired a couple kick stands. One is spoken for already. I don't know how much the chroming will be, so I don't have a price. But what I plan on doing is a kick stand exchange. You tell me how high you need it to be I'll make it, send it to you and then you send me your old one back, so I can use it for the next guy.
I will tell you up front that the ones Eric is having made will have a lot better chrome.
