This product is requested from time to time. Guessing at a rough price estimate $120/150/??

Your interest is not binding, I'm just trying to explore if there is actual interest before we talk to Swatt MotorCycle Products to see if they can make such a product.


BTW - just wanted to credit Teutonics - it's he who have contacted Swatt to see what can be done. We'll keep you posted.

My 2004 S4R sidestand was too short. I didn't dare change the ride height for fear of bike tippage. I found the longer Cycle Cat stand to be very helpful. Since they're no longer around I would think there's a market.

I'm interested (provided powdercoated black is an option  Wink )

You should make this thread a poll.

Is there a way to enable two votes, as in "longer" AND "black" ?

Yes, but all you'll get are dirty answers if you phrase it like that.

I'm looking for a cycle cat +1.  I'd be interested in seeing what they came up with.

The S*R stand is pretty easily modified on its own whether its too long or too short, as long as you know a fairly competent welder nearby.  The problem I had was with the 695 stand since it was iron, no one wanted to touch it as far as welding goes.  I recently just put on a S2R stand and it works fine for me since I don't have the low mount exhausts anymore.  It is still just very slightly low, but I'm considering having a more substantial foot fashioned for it to take care of that, as well as to give a bit more area to grab with my boot when putting it down.  It also hits the shift linkage when retracted, so a little nub welded on will take care of that.  Something to consider for those with S*R stands rather than fabbing up a whole new one.
