Centre Stand Spring
« on: 02 July 2018, 11:51:17 am »
Hi all,

My centre stand was really slow to retract last night, and when I had a look at it, the larger spring has snapped  :'( . Has anyone had any luck finding a generic spring that fits, or is my only option OEM at £20.00?


The coils seem to be much wider than the ones you see on ebay or WEmoto, probably because of having to accommodate the thinner spring going through the middle?  The same spring fits the Fazer 1000 and VMax apparently but I can't find any second hand ones online.

My caliper is dead, but looking at it with a ruler the measurements seem to be roughly 120mm hook to hook (assuming it's the same as the thin spring).  The coil part is roughly 25mm OD, and nearly 60mm long.

If anyone has one knocking around that they're happy to sell please let me know!

Cheers,

fazersharp

That's great thanks! 


Clearly I didn't put the correct words in when I searched  :wall
