Tankbag Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Need advice please, I think I've bent my side stand strapping it down on a trailer, but I can't remember if it was this slightly bent shape before. It does seem more lent over on the stand now. Thanks in advance folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel sort of better but it tells me they bend, I think to avoid a potentially large bill I'll fit a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Fro Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I'm not so sure it is bent you know, the lettering isn't distorted.You don't need to buy a new none anyway, you could restomod the shit out of it with a bit of old angle from the scrappy and some silicone sealant.

EX GASMAN Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Need advice please, I think I've bent my side stand strapping it down on a trailer I never leave the stand down when on a trailer, once the bars are fixed it can't fall then take the stand up and carry on strapping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance folks From the pic I'd actually say the stand isn't bent but closer inspection looks that the metal bracket the stand connects to might be slightly bent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
