Hi Louis, if the spring is loose then it don't matter what way round you put it the thing will still be loose, best bet buy a new springĀ and refit it. Just make sure you have it fitted correctly before you fork out on a new one. As an aside if your centre stand is wobbling up and down when you ride it can catch the road if you corner hard and spit you off. Best way to refit a centre stand spring I have found is to take one of the mounting bolts off, fit the spring to the hooks then using the stand as a lever force the stand inwards while a mate bungs the bolt back through, you can do it yourself but I guarantee you'll skin your knuckles. Best of luck.

One other thing, it's always nice if you say hello in the new members section!
