Title: 99 M750 Kick Stand Post by: TrevOwnz on May 02, 2010, 09:17:02 PM I'm almost positive the one I have now is after market crap and springs back when you pick the bike up. The big problem is when I down shift it hits it slightly not enough to worry but does the stock or a better kick stand sit low so if I drop my pedal a little I wont hit?

Title: Re: 99 M750 Kick Stand Post by: junior varsity on May 03, 2010, 05:47:29 AM a bent lever on the 99 makes this really easy to occur. really easy. even easier if you sport reverse shift.
I've got a spare sidestand and mount if you need it (cheap too). mine never auto-retracted though... Title: Re: 99 M750 Kick Stand Post by: avizpls on May 03, 2010, 05:51:56 AM haha the sweet auto-retract kickstand. Thats actually normal for your bike.
Title: Re: 99 M750 Kick Stand Post by: junior varsity on May 03, 2010, 05:57:59 AM Weird. My 99 did not have such a thing. It does mount up differently than the 2000+ years though - the bracket is two bolts parallel to ground on case, not the ones at an angle.
Title: Re: 99 M750 Kick Stand Post by: TrevOwnz on May 03, 2010, 10:01:11 AM I hate how it flips up. I keep thinking someone is going to get on my bike and drop it thinking the stand is down. I'm not sure if it's bend I will take a picture and show you guys later.
Any good non auto retracting stands? Title: Re: 99 M750 Kick Stand Post by: Howie on May 04, 2010, 05:59:23 AM I hate how it flips up.
