GS750ES 1985 : Central stand cushion

[Guest]

The attached GS750ES 1983 stand drawing shows part #7 as a cushion to dampen the movement of the central stand.
I honestly could not find anywhere to fit this cushion. My bike did not originally have it and I bought it a few days ago.
As of now, the first part that the stand tackles is the bottom of the suspension.
Can an owner of a GS750ES look into the bottom of his central stand and tell me where this cushion fits and how do I prevent the stand from knocking the bottom of the suspension ?

What exhaust is on the bike ?

There should be a hole on the bottom side of the frame where the center stand meets it; at least it did on my 550

What exhaust is on the bike ?

The original 4 to 2 exhaust system.
I see no hole at the bottom of the frame.

On the 850 it's underneath the passenger footpeg support frame.

I'll be in the barn later today and I'll have a look at the location on my '84 EF. Should be the same.

Thanks for asking about this.My 85 has a Supertapp so where ever it goes is missing.As a result the center stand "bounces".Will be fabbing something up now to stop that

OK, on the bottom of the left muffler mount there should be a small stepped piece between the 2 muffler attachment nuts with a hole in it for the cushion. The lights not great where the bike is but it looks to be an integral piece of the bracket so if the bracket is there that mounting point should be there.

Here it is...
Thanks Sandy! I wouldn't guess it's the muffler in a million years
