My centre stand, lower pannier brackets, and one or two other bits are starting to look a bit tatty so they're going off to be powder coated. I'd like to remove the centre stand without taking the whole lot apart but the cat is a bit close on the r/h side to get a spanner in where it pivots on (2), so the job looks a bit bigger than I originally thought. The whole lot is going to have to come off so that I can get a good grip and remove items (2).
I've undone the hex screw (8) at the r/h side and it comes out, (2) seems to be screwed into the stand mounting plate (6) but I can't get a spanner on it as the cat is too close.
On the l/h side I can't remove (8) from (2) they're just turning with the bush (9). I haven't yet put a spanner on (2) to hold it. I'm just weighing the job up at the moment.
Before I start taking the whole bike apart, grazing knuckles and damaging bits my question is, do items (2) thread into (6) & (7) or do they rotate in there? On the r/h it's not rotating and appears to be threaded in and on the l/h side it turns with (8) & (9) and appears not to be threaded in. How does all this lot fit together?
Ta very much.
