I need another sidestand for my 851 as mine has gone very "wobbly" and I want to sort it before I need to repair a fairing!

I just missed one on ebay Germany that went for £1.50 :mad:

Can anyone assist before I start ringing round the breakers?

Cheers, paul

I've got a couple spare paul.
Send me a pic of what yours is like - at the very least you can borrow one until you find the right type.

I don't know, I hadn't thought of using a 9x6 one - are you passing this way anytime soon?

Its like an SS one, but must be a bit longer or a different angle as the bike leans WAY over with an SS one.......

ok, measure it then :lol:
The one on the beast makes it lean very precariously cos the rear is jacked up so much :o

The only one that I can get to is the SS one which is 24cm from pivot to tip.

The 888 and 851 are stashed away from home at present so I can't measure them - anyone got a ruler handy?

I've just had a quick look in the garage - between the shelf and the bikes, there are 3 different kinds of legs and 3 different kinds of brackets :lol:
