neversaydie Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Im there Monday for the road bikes trackday, taking the fz6. Question is, do I remove the centre stand or leave it on. Im inclined to take it off. Ill be taking a few tools just as back up if owt needs adjusting, and the mirrors will come off the day before
Moderator drewpy Posted October 1, 2016 Moderator Posted October 1, 2016 depends on how far your going to lean? take it off if you like, just make sure the chain is well adjusted beforehand should be a great day especially if it doesn't rain, have fun
neversaydie Posted October 2, 2016 Author Posted October 2, 2016 Think ill leave it on. Just taking a few tools, 1/4 socket set with sockets/hex's/slotted/crosspoints, torch, pliers, cable ties, duct tape. Bikes been checked over and filled this morning, mirrors off. Ill pack some snap tonight then off in the morning. Weathers looking good
Moderator Cynic Posted October 2, 2016 Moderator Posted October 2, 2016 Sure its actually worth the worry. My old suzuki still had its centre stand, granted with the rubber stops cut to almost nothing. I could lean that ol girl far enough to drag the bellypan, pegs and exhaust. Stand never touched. Wish i was going too.
Moderator drewpy Posted October 2, 2016 Moderator Posted October 2, 2016 wehnTommy and I were at Barnsley a few years ago, there was this immaculate suzi Gt, just restrored. he ground his main stand away in 20 mins

neversaydie Posted October 4, 2016 Author Posted October 4, 2016 Manufacturer was Maginon. Bought it from Aldi a few years ago. Only place i could mount it out of the wind blast was behind the sxcreen and onto the bars. The more revs i gave it, the more waves fluctuated through the images. Shame really, cos I had a real blast. I booked it cos it was a Road Bike only day. Me and very few others actually rode there, most were trailered/vanned in. Shared the garage with a Ducati, ZX10R, R1, GSXR1000. Ive never seen so many Ducatis in one place. S1000RR, Fireblades, and a couple of MVF3s And my 600 fazer. What a hoot. Loved it 2
finnerz89 Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 Surprising how many vibes you get through the bars! Sounds like good company though! Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk 1
