'92 R100GS
So yes, we all get older & that's OK, it beats the alternative.
My question has to do with the increasing difficulty of getting the bike on the center stand when loaded.
Not wishing to buy a different center stand, I have heard of the stand being shortened.
Now before I get the hacksaw out and start cutting away, I would like to hear from those who have done such a thing.
The bike is a '92 GS. I'm pulling the stand off just for inspection, maintenance & perhaps replacing the bushing. (has never been done)
So:
Who has made this modification?
Are there previous threads on this? (I searched)
Shorten by how much? ( I've heard 1 inch)
Thanks to all that provide input.
