Title: Brown's side stand install
Post by: DeeG on November 26, 2020, 02:38:06 AM: Hello everyone!

I am on the home stretch to FINALLY get the R45 back together. House chores and 400+ hours of overtime so far this year have taken its toll. My precious spare time has been spent flying out of town to see family (and a long weekend in Vegas floating on MGM's Lazy River) instead of spending time in the shop working on the bike.

However, since our biennial Thai trip has been cancelled for this year, I now have 6 weeks to spend sitting under a heat lamp in the shop staring at the bike.

The point of all this is.... I did not take enough pictures of the bike as I was taking it apart, and I cannot figure out how the Browns side stand gets attached, I am obviously missing some parts. Anyone have pictures of theirs installed???

Thanks!!

Dee

I searched everywhere for something like that. Now to contact them and get a new exhaust clamp. I seem to be missing mine.

THANKS!!!

I spent the month of December tearing out carpet and installing hardwood in my office, so I haven't spent a whole lot of time here. The good news is, I found the missing clamp. I have no idea how it made it into a small box tucked into a larger box stashed in my ever growing sewing supplies/fabric collection... but I have the missing part and that's all that matters. LOL
