Today I decided to re-fit the center stand that a previous owner had removed from the bike - a simple job; 2 bolts and a spring.
I was scratching my head wondering how I would get the heavy spring re-attached when I recalled something that I probably read here. Trick is to extend the spring bit by bit on the bench and insert washers or coins in between the coils until its long enough to simply hook in place.
Worked a treat it did and no doubt saved skinning my knuckles and lots of swearing.
