Hi all,

I've just fitted one of Ricks jack up kits to my NC30 whilst fitting my full Tyga system. Once done though I have a small issue in that the side stand is now effectively very short so the bike leans heavily on the stand. Has anyone found a solution to this either by extending the stand (and if so, how) or by fitting a different side stand?

I could always carry a chock in my pocket but would like a proper solution.

Cheers guys,

Paul.

The NC29 stand is a direct bolt on to the NC30 and is a bit longer.

Have you any idea by how much?

I used a CBR900 stand on my CB-1. IDK how long the '30 stand is but maybe this helps. It's about 20mm longer than the CB-1 stand.

I used an nc29 stand on my 30 that's had the rear raised.

i need to get a bigger stand too, mine leans over like a HARLEY!

i had contemplated on buying a BIG snapon spanner and bending it so the open end was the foot and the ring was the head that mounted onto the stand bracket, i thought it was a bit orange county chopper however i thought it would have a bit of coolness to say, "i made that"

It's more likely to snapoff

But they do have a lifetime guarantee!

Got myself an NC29 stand ordered so will let you all know how much longer it is when it comes. Cheers, Paul.

I ground a small bit off the heel of my nc29 stand, it sat too upright when standard. You might need to do this (few minutes and a bench grinder or longer and a file), depends on how much the rear's raised and how it sits.

I'm much happier with it than the severe lean that it had with the stock stand fitted.
