Well spotted mate!

Unfortunately about as much use as a chocolate teapot on the trike :lol:

P.S. anyone want a spare (cheap) sidestand?

How long is it, i might be interested.

It's off a 900ie dark - year 2000 but the way it bolts to the engine looks the same. Not sure how the length compares to earlier monsters, possibly shorter as my 900ie solo leans more than my older M600 did?

PM me if you want it and we'll talk turkey :)

Thanks Gary,

if you could measure the length for me, I will let you know whether its any good or not.

Don't worry about the turkey though, as we're have goose this chrismas!

Hi Danny,

Measured the stand today - it's 230mm from the middle of the foot to the pivot bolt, and +45mm more from the pivot to where the bracket bolts to the engine.

Hope that helps?
