Center Stand go bye bye?

[BassCliff]

Why didn't *I* think of that?

How to apply chain lube on a 929 that does not have a centerstand.........
Tilt bike onto the kickstand until both wheels are off the ground, Hold bike at a 45 deg angle with your left hand on the handlebar grip. Take the can of chain lube from your right front pocket with your right hand. Kick rear tire round and round with your right foot while balancing bike with your left hand, standing on your left foot and bend over a spray chain lub onto the moving chain.

What a great technique! I'm going to put that in my little book of motorcycle tips. :-D

You guys are so smart!

FWIW, when using the center stand, think more about pushing down on the stand with your foot than lifting the bike with your hands. Forgive me if I state the obvious. 8-[

Thank you for your indulgence,

First item I ordered for my Katana was a brand new centrestand, and a stop rubber, so it wouldn't rattle.

If your grab handle is missing, replace it.

BikeBandit lists it as Discontinued. I can't see any mounting points for it on my '82 either.

I've been toying with making a custom handle to mount instead of the helmet lock which I never use.

If you've never used it, do all of your maintenance without it, then you might as well remove it.

Hey Pete, If bike bandit shows it as discontinued, It must have been there when it was new. Should be able to see from the diagram where it goes. What "82" do you have?? surely someone here can help. Post in the wanted section here, keep a watch on e-bay, or find one at a bike salvage yard. They sure are handy
