Centre Stand Question

(1/2) > >>

Morning All

As part of my winter "fettling" programme I pulled the centre stand of the bike to give it a coat of paint and a bit of lube!

2 questions

1) When re-installing it should the bolts be pulled up tight so that the stand rotates about the bush or left only just tight so that the bushes still can rotate? I only ask as I had one of each  ;)
2) Should there be one or 2 wavy washers?

Cheers

1/Tight, so stand rotates around bushes , VERY IMPORTANT as loose flogs out plates that make stop for stand
2/ 1 washer each side, just stops stand moving side to side

Brilliant and thanks

Just need to track down a M18 DIN 137B wavy washer then!!!

So far I can only find boxes of 200 over here!!

M10 or 3/8" spring washer should work, prob ok to just have one side too, not a biggie in scheme of things, but Gutsibits will have wavy washers in singles

I thought Gutsibits would have them too - but they don't!

I agree though - not a huge issue so if I find one I'll fit it and if I don't I wont  ;)
