Susieque Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I know I've asked this before, but have lost the info on my old laptop! Can anyone tell me where I can find a side stand to fit my 06 plate YBR? I seem to remember a universal side stand that comes in 3 different sizes & I have Googed this, but the fixing doesn't look like it would work on the bracket on my bike Can't seem to find one that will fit!Also, if I fit one I'm assuming it won't be wired up to a cut-out switch. Would the bike then fail the MOT? Quote
Guest Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Susie, i found you the last one, and no you dont need a side stand switch for the MOT..i'll have another look round.. lol Quote
Susieque Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 Cheers Simon - i'm glad you're back from your holidays!!! Cheeky cow aren't I??! Quote
Guest Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 http://motorcycleproducts.co.uk/catalog ... 9_611.html3 sizes, bolts to a round tube.. Universal - Long, medium, and Small Quote
Susieque Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 thanks for taking the time to look Simon, but the fixing point on my bike is not tubular. It's a flat plate, with 2 bolt holes. Not sure if they're both for bolts or if 1 is for the spring to hook into.I'll take a photo when it's light outside Quote
Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 didn't notice (until now..) that the YBR doesnt have a cradle frame, and therefore unable to take the clamp on type.. Breakers Yard?? Quote
Susieque Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 I know - it's a bloody pain in the butt!! Why have a fixing plate on the bike when they don't sell anything to bolt to it!!Thanks for trying Simon - I think I might get in touch with the bike school that I did my CBT with. All their YBR's had side stands and they were newer than my bike! Must've got them from somewhere! Quote
Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 i'm led to believe that the 07/08 model has one, and will fit... just try and get one, you know what dealers are like...ohh and the electrics are ready for the switch too... Quote
Susieque Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 Yeah - asked bike shop to source & fit one when they did my MOT and was told 'yes, no problem'When Rennie took the bike they said they couldn't get one! Quote
