I sent a message yesterday, and am waiting for a reply.

I asked for a 27mm, can always bang it in with a mallet :peace:

If a language barrier does come up a translation may be very useful thanks (my german is very rusty).

Other people here have said 27mm for the NC30. The NC35 has a smaller hole in the stem.

Got a reply.

The seller will include a 27mm pin for £5.99 extra.

That's the gist of this anyway:

hello,
yes we got it. its 5,99


kind regards
m.polzer



Don't think I'll moan at an extra £6, the stand seems a bargain as it is.

What bike do you use it for?/If it's an NC30 do the pins that are supplied fit?
Sorry haven't been on for a while, yes used it for a nc30 and they supply the extra pin needed for the nc30, but you know that already, also use it for an rgv250, really good job for the price of it and can't complain about it at all.

Well I opened my headstock stand yesterday. I say opened, I literally meant just opened the box, it wasn't even wrapped....... Lazy.

Didn't have much time to look at it as the huge box had to be moved away as the living room is tiny and it was taking up too much space.

But today after visiting the other side of the family I got back and got a good few hours in the garage to finish the work I needed to do before valve clearances, then got the stand together.

It went together very easily, nicely slotted into the yoke stem even with the pin being 27mm and rolled into place quite nicely. Bike feels secure using it, and works great with my abba stand :up:

Well made and nicely finished, bargain in my opinion :grin:
