Leatherat Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Just buy one of these....... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YAMAHA-XVS125-DRAGSTAR-01-04-STAND-SIDE-/110709679756?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item19c6cfa68c http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YAMAHA-XVS-125-DRAGSTAR-SIDE-STAND-/230638692288?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item35b32327c0 Both are priced at pretty much less than a tank of petrol, and I'm not sure the original stand is availible in chrome anyway.

Leatherat Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 £200!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They're pulling you're panties down and they're gonna fuck you hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 20min job for anyone with a MIG welder, go elsewhere and only take £50 max with you, and you really ought to be able to get chips and a pint on the way home with that!

neversaydie Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 There is a centre stand conversion available for the XVS 125 How did you manage to knock it off? Leatherats advice is sound, any engineering workshop or a mate with a mig welder, its a beer money job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
