| Pretty simple stuff once you get the spring off. As you can see here
the only thing that happened to the side stand was that the extender
broke off. I tried to JB Weld it on, but that didn’t work: |
|
| First I removed the shifter just to get it out of the way. Remove the
10mm bolt and slide the shift lever off: |
|
| Then
I removed the covers and then the stay-step themselves. Number 1 in
the pic are 6mm hex head bolts, number 2 is a 5mm hex head bolt. Once
you’ve removed the bolt labeled 2 these “covers” just pull out of
there rubber grommets: |
|
| Here’s a look at the pegs on the back of these covers, there are 3
total: |
|
| And here are 2 of the 3 rubber grommets that the “pegs” fit into: |
|
| Now remove the stay-step bolts, and then it just slides off so have
one hand holding it: |
|
| Here’s how it looks now: |
|
| Now with the Side Stand in the “Up” position, basically I took a pair
of channel locks [pliers] and grabbed the spring at the long straight
metal part, then used both hands to push the spring allowing it to
expand and then popped the hooks off: |
|
| Now I
removed the side stands rear 17mm nut: |
|
| Remove the 10mm side stand safety switch bolt. Simply unbolt and let
the safety switch hang: |
|
| Now remove the 17mm bolt on the front of the side stand, and remove
the side stand. The side stand itself is threaded on the backside: |
|
| And here’s the old one……minus the peg…: |
|
| Now to put the new one on, first I threaded the new side stand on,
17mm bolt: |
|
| Now put the rear nut on and torque to 33 ft. lbs: |
|
| Then push the side stand up and reconnect the spring: |
|
| Now put the side stand safety switch back on, 10mm bolt: |
|
| Then put the shift lever back on, you can see the alignment dots here
and tighten the 10mm bolt to secure the shift lever. Next put the
stay-step and cover back on: |
|
| And here I go just like new: |
|
| And finally I took some white lithium grease and lubed up the contact
points on the side stand: |
