Title: Bolt-on/univeral Kickstand Compatibility?
Post by zuluwhiskeycharlie on 09/05/16 at 10:38:51

Hey Everyone, I am wondering if anyone has used some form of bolt on or universal kickstand or center stand in their builds? The Stock kickstand location interferes with the rearsets I have installed so I am trolling the waters for some good options for relocating or modifying the existing kickstand. The only limitation here is I don't have a welder or skills so I would prefer a hardware based solution. I am aware of the RYCA mount, but at 300 dollars plus the cost of the strap I am looking for a cheaper option. Let me know what has worked for you, and thanks for your help/input!

That's not something that a lot of people have done. I don't remember anyone in particular,, I Think some guy did a center stand, but it's so low anyway,, I don't see how it would work out.
Sometimes being the one in need means that you have to solve it..
I'm glad I have just followed in the footsteps..

You could mount the standard kickstand w/out the footpeg.

and if you could find an 86 model, you could separate the footpeg mount for a cleaner look.

In the same head scratch right now. Bought an aluminum side stand from a 675 Triumph and am going to try to make it fit. Stock one is heavy and ugly. Doing rear sets on mine as well. Should have an answer in a week or so.
