I have an ABBA stand for my Triumph and got an adaptor kit for my son's Monster Dark - they've sent me "Kit 9" which seems to be correct but for one issue - the offside adapter seems like it cannot mate properly with the swingarm socket because of the placement of the rear brake cylinder (more specifically the connector/pipe into it) - anyone else found this and what is the workaround???

Swivel the elbow from the brake cylinder until it clears - easy!

Yes the brake master cylinder fouls stand

I just used to unbolt mine from footrest hanger and push it out of the way

Yep done the elbow swing thing and it's great, got a MotoGP stand on the front as well. Top way to store your bikes, all three are on ABBA stands (one is a 1950's BSA).

This is mine and the plastic elbow swivels back - I assume it's on an O-ring
