Hello MOA, first time posting here. I recently picked up a '78 R100/7 with the intent of enjoying the work it takes to keep a vintage machine in good order.
One of the first gremlins I have noticed has to do with the center stand. When engaged (down), the cross member is in contact with the oil pan. I am smart enough to know that even a little bit of weight on the oil pan is something i'd like to avoid.
My question is, was there great variance in the geometry of the airhead's center stands over the years? I really would like to swap this out ASAP!
Many thanks in advance,
GB
