I was thinking the same thing. I'm breaking out the "RED" for this one

Couple of days ago the "screw" that you put into the bottom of the bikes frame to hold the spring retainer on to the bike popped out when I put the bike on the center-stand. Luckily it was in my garage so the screw, retainer and spring were easy to find. Since it's a screw and barely holds itself in the bike I decided to mix up some epoxy to hold it in. Works great! Don't ever see a reason to remove it.

FYI

Then it struck me as to why it had been drilled and tapped and they included a washer and bolt on one end.





I'm guessing this is their fix. So you only use a clip on one side???

I'll try to put this back on after work today and see what happens.
only thing harley davidson makes in the us is the motor cases.

After reading the CSC tutorial, the installation took about 10 minutes.

I was a concerned about lifting the bike onto the stand because I also have the lowering link installed.

And because of some health issues, I have lost a lot of the strength I once had.

On the first attempt, I couldn't do it.

Then rolled a 3/4" board under the rear wheel, and gave a grunt...




On the second attempt, besides adding the board under the rear wheel,
I altered my holding and lifting technique. The bike popped up on the stand.

I had to keep an eye on the front handlebars. They kept wanting to flop to the side.



A few concerns:

....ground clearance...



.....and for off road riders, maybe a way to snag a branch or rock???

....make sure the kick stand is down before taking the bike off the center stand.

....and maybe a warning for those working around the bike when it is on the center stand...

...it only took a slight nudge for the bike to roll forward off the stand.

this is why you should upload your pics directly to chinariders forum!
