Side stand CB550k 1977

<< < (4/6) > >>

3scs:
I’ve got no exhaust on my k3 at the moment but took this pic maybe you can check yours to see if it’s similar or if the stand is worn and allowing it to go too high

Wildshed21:
That’s brilliant thank you for taking the time to do that very much appreciated

Two types of side stands fitted to the K and F2, (with and without the rubber) depends on the country  ;)

Looks like  the stop on the frame is worn. A little weld will solve it .

Wildshed21:
Thanks Yes does look a little worn but I still think something odd, I’d have to weld a significant blob on to stop it hitting exhaust, it needs to be about 15mm lower, but that would work

Trigger:
!5 mm is too much. Have you tried putting a nut in between the stand and the stop, to see how it sits. The bolt wares that holds the stand on but, that is only about a mm or so.
I would also loosen off the nuts on the head and the mounting bolt, then try to push the pipe towards the bike to see if that gives more clearance  ;)
