Yeah the wind blew it over and the spring shot off and bent the stand completely

Shark250 · 09-21-2018, 05:12 PM

Surely you can find one similar? $140 seems a little steep. Even though Peace Sports only currently imports the Brozz, the Shark should be similar enough that the kickstand will work. Give them a call for a replacement.

Bend straight then weld some heavy angle to support it

That has to be your basic Hondoid side stand. Even if you find one without the fancy little rubber thing, so be it.

Kinda like this:

Or, like NZ says, just bend it back.

The biggest mistake folks make with these bikes is trying to get way too specific when attempting to find parts. Search things like "Chinese dirt bike kick stand" and topics like that.

There's also CSC. See link.

Got the new kickstand In today ordered it about a month ago now and it was the biggest waste of 14$ ever it’s worse than the broken one.
Seriously I measured and even asked them about the size and it’s about 4 inches shorter than it was supposed to be.
No returns no refund.
Would love for anyone to help me out with this I’m genuinely pissed off.

Ok I haven’t posted or been on here in a while so quick recap I have a 2016 shark 250 and I love it. I have dipped it purple and it seems plastidiping plastics can stand the test of time (1 season of off-roading and power washing). I have recently upgraded my master cylinder and it took some work but my front breaks are ridiculously good at stopping my bike. I have upgraded to a mikuni carb and I currently have a 110 jet I believe. I think tomorrow before work I’m going to menards or Home Depot and I’m going to get some pvc or rubber tubes and finagle a cold air intake to bypass that worthless air box under the seat. Will post pics in a min. I know probably 7 people will actually read this but ��♂️ This a forum to talk about mods and how we personalize our bikes right.

It looks good!

That bike looks great and I’m personally glad you all are posting about the Bashan because I’m leaning towards buying one!
