Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums Accessories Kickstand Help

Well kickstand broke, the lovering peg bent out of shape.
This was due to practecing slow speed circles and u-turns. I tried to straighten the lowering extension and it broke.

So now I am looking for a kcickstand extension or need to buy a replacing one. So far found this:

I am thinking it might work until I get a a replacement stand.

Anyone out there with experience on this?

Thanks

Replace it. Put the word out here in classifieds and watch ebay. Mine broke like that in '05 (I think). Briefly I used a vice grip on the thing but eventually cobbled together my own extension not unlike the one on that web site. That served me for quite a while, but it just doesn't beat a new kickstand. I believe a new one from Triumph is $85. Check BikeBandit.com. I think I got my used one for around $45.

BTW, mine was ground down from draggin on the ground in sharp turns, but that's not where it broke.
