Title: Kickstand and cyclecat rearsets Post by: 671M900 on October 23, 2010, 04:58:12 PM So I put on the sexy cyclecat rearsets, and have found that they hit the side stand!! I can adjust them up a little more, but I'm afraid I won't have enough distance to complete an upshift. Any ideas to lower the stand position?
Title: Re: Kickstand and cyclecat rearsets Post by: DarkStaR on October 25, 2010, 02:50:49 PM Someone here or on "the other board" added a small plastic block to the bottom of the side stand mounting plate to make the side stand rest a little lower when up. I can't find the link though. :-\

Title: Re: Kickstand and cyclecat rearsets Post by: monsta on October 27, 2010, 04:23:19 AM yeah, I had a similar drama with the Lucas reasets. On the lowest setting, I couldn't get my foot cleanly under the shift lever. I tried an SS stand as well as a 748, neither of them were suitable.
I ended up making another mount bracket for the sidestand!

I am consisidering bending the side stand in a tiny bit and maybe cutting and rewelding the foot to straighten out.

It's a 4 or 5mm allen about an inch below the pivot. Look for a little hole on the side of the stand that faces front when the stand is down - that's the access.

Title: Re: Kickstand and cyclecat rearsets Post by: 671M900 on October 28, 2010, 05:37:42 AM Hahaha! GP shift, yes why not? Because it'll still hit the side stand on the upshift.
I'm thinking of modding the pivot somehow, Possibly adding a tiny spacer on the end of the side stand, or drilling a hole to make a set screw like the cyclecat stand (which I don't have) Title: Re: Kickstand and cyclecat rearsets Post by: junior varsity on October 28, 2010, 05:42:52 AM i don't think it would, but another solution would be to acquire a 2000+ sidestand and bracket, where the spring is located differently and it mounts to the engine case differently. That will solve your problems without need to get creative
