how to put a center stand on

(1/2) > >>

OLIVER1GEORGE:
i just purchased a center stand for my 1975 cb400f  it came with a bolt , spring and a horse show type thing with 2 holes in it i have put the stand on and it goes up and down like it should, but i cant seem to work out what the horse shoe thing is for and i cant see where the spring goes to from the stand to where.

Dave M:
From memory one of the holes in the metal plate is keyhole shaped and fits onto a lug on the frame above the pivot.

The spring fits in the hole on the other end and fits onto a lug on one of the stand legs. I think!

Biffta should be along soon and he should be able to confirm. Dave?
