So when I bought the bike the gentleman selling it was expressing his fondness of the maneuverability of the monster while it rests on its kickstand.
He was actually placing the entire weight of the bike on the stand and rotating the monster. I noticed that when the bike is on the stand it doesn't really lean on the left, if I were to go on the left side and just give it a nudge it would topple to the right.
Any way to adjust this? If the stand was bent It would lean too far but this isn't the case.
sounds like he lowered the bike and kept the stock stand.
either raise the bike or get a shorter stand... which I have a shorter cyclecat I'll sell ya ;)
And you might want to look at the engine case... Pivoting the bike on it's stand is a bad idea. It's fine for bikes that have the stand attached to the frame. But on Monsters, well any Duc the stand is attached to the engine case which is not meant to take stresses like that. There's been a few folks who have tried that pivot-on-the-stand trick and found ther bike gushing oil from the crack in the case they just caused.
yeah saw this on a 696 that was shipped overseas tied down in a crate resting on its kickstand.
dumbass movers.
