kickstand

On the way home from the new forest rally,tom hit a pot hole on a bend resulting in the sidestand being ripped off along with half the bracket.





what are the options can it be rewelded (it looks like its a cast bracket)we couldn't find all the bits or can we get a weld on kickstand

Re: kickstand

I dont know if it can be welded but if it cant, then there are several options for weld on ones. Have a look at this link, page 37 onwards - Zodiac kickstands
