five star center stand - help!

Post by Eric Knight Holbrook » Fri Jun 15, 2001 8:41 am

Hey all. I just got this stand from Fred at Arrowhead. I understand where the two main bolts (two on each side, that is) go in but it seems like there's other screws and stuff on the stand itself which I don't understand their purpose or what to do with them. I see the pictures on his site, but they don't help much other than indicate which way the stand faces (which is obvious already). Do I just slide these (four) new bolts in, slide the footpeg over them, and screw it on from the inside? Should the nut be on the inside out outside or will that be obvious once I begin? Am I missing something else? Thanks for any info. Eric

Eric and all, I am including a set of Jake Jakeman's hardened bolts with each Five Star center stand. These bolts are much stronger and will mount the center stand and footpegs more securely than the ones that originally came with the center stand. I think you will see that it is a very simple installation. Just remove your footpegs and discard the bolts you take out. Use the new Sagebrush Machine Shop bolts and footpegs on the outside of the center stand. Tighten the four bolts and you are done. It is really simple. You may have a couple of loose 6mm bolts and nuts that are used to adjust the stop of the center stand in the up position. If these have come out in shipping, they mount on the center stand with the nut on the bolt and then this goes on the center stand facing the legs. Adjust the up position with these two bolts to just miss the side stand and lock everything down. Let us know how it goes. Fred www.arrowheadmotorsports.com

Fred, Does the Moose bash plate have to be trimmed for the 5 Star stand like it does for Dual Star's version? Don Detloff Fair Haven, MI A14 -- In DSN_klr650@y..., "Fred Hink" wrote:

300 years... lol. But our court system will probably let him out in 3 as long as he agrees not to walk around with a loaded Bic.
