Title: centerstand advice requested
Post by: brittour95 on September 25, 2010, 06:53:21 PM
Greetings mates,
During my semi-weekly inspection this morning, I found the centerstand is ready to retire.  I remember seeing threads about the stop pins failing, but have any of you ever seen the stand fail like this?

It's a 2005.

So, I figure that I've got three options:

1. Have the faulty part welded up by a local joint.  Not sure if this is a realistic option, given that the existing welds seem to be good, but the actual metal has ruptured and is getting ready to fail.

2. The SW-Motech stand is available from Twisted Throttle for $180 before shipping.

3. The Triumph stand is available from Bike Bandit for $145 before shipping.

What would you do?

Thanks!
Brian

Buy the mo-tech center stand, better quality, proper pivot pins. You won't regret it.
