Center Stand Stop Bracket

[Neilw]

Pleased with myself. The previous bracket was 2mm thick and kept bending, making it almost useless; it also didn't have a rubber stop.

So I made a replacement, using a 4 mm stainless steel flat bar and a rubber bumper from Amazon. I managed to bend it into shape in a small vice I have using a club hammer; it took a lot of persuasion.

Here it is fitted, hanging from the exhaust mounting point.

Goes to show what you can do with a minimal set of tools. :-) Hopefully useful for anyone else having to make something,

Nice job, well done.

I use stainless for small brackets and stuff on resto jobs, because it doesn't need painting and won't obviously rust plus it polishes up nicely.
Need cobalt drill bits though as it's tough on standard bits.

Got a stainless fabrication shop nearby where I scrounge off cuts, which helps.
