My first project - 1974 CB360 K0

Thanks both, that’s exactly what it’s doing, unfortunately I have no welding gear. I am tempted to leave it for now but don’t want to cause more problems by doing so. If it’s not a big deal I would be happy to deal with it further down the line.

Not really a big deal just keep the ends of the pin greased to prevent ovaling of the brackets.

Removing the stand pivot pin just takes time I managed it without welding gear just used some drills, small chisel & a Hacksaw blade threaded through. The replacement pins on my 400 were solid so should be easier to remove in the future.
You will only regret it later if you leave it as it is. Your shout I was 74 when I removed mine, so much easier if you are working with a bare frame. Do it once do it right is my motto. 👍

I always drill 'em out. Never had a lot of success with the hacksaw method. Or on occasion remove the pivot tube completely and weld in a section of tube from a Vauxhall Corsa wheel nut wrench.

Drilling sounds like it would be a decent option for me, any idea what drill size you normally use Ash?
