we'll have to figure something out, do you need my inside leg measurement as well?

Only if you want me to knock you up a new armour plated codpiece with sidestand attachment
a close up shot of the lower sub frame area and chain roller might do it

that might restrict movement a bit too much.

Yep it might but so handy when you get pissed, just flick out the side stand and you dont fall over

[raglanash]

Dont know about the number yet ..We are hopeing they will let him race in the vets class seeing its his first mx
would be good to catch up

You racing the 426? I will look out for ya. How olds ya mate? I got into the vets last month, im 34 but they let me in as long as i didn't want any points. But hey don't put your mate in the vets thinking they are all slow old buggers, they so aint..
Better to put him in the correct intermediate class for his bike, he'll be sweet.
It's pretty cool there eh, good cruisy atmosphere great for a first race.

Have added pics of stand on bike

[oldskool]

A very fine job indeed! That should increase the value of your bike too! I must add that your bike looks very clean*!!
I haven't had a chance to take pix yet, kept busy with my sons afterschool BBall but should have it to you this week. Because most of my riding is done at the Sandpit can you add a jandal at the base please. I'd say 'thong' but you'd supply something else!

[laserracer]

Thong...grubby...anal...shit...where is this leading to!
Try a different grade of paint or sandblast it back to metal and galvo dip it!
But yeah you're right I won't say it!!!!

Thanks mate,so far ive made the sidestand, a chain guard you can see it in the 4thpic just infront of the front sprocket,, and a radiator overflow system for my bike,Next on the list is probably to modify the engine breather tube so it wont draw up any water

[SpikedPunch]

Nice job! This thread has reminded/inspired me to stick a kickstand on my bike. I have one from a chinese pit bike that came with when I bought it. I've figured out a way to make a bracket thing, Dad's volunteered to do the grunt work for me I was just wondering if my swingarm would be steel or aluminium for welding purposes? I have no idea.

[laserracer]

Swing arm is alloy, how about a clamp on one like these, just make up a clamp fit it to your sidestand then clamp it to your swingarm
if you need any more info only to happy to help
cheers Dave
