    1. Crash Bars and Board / Peg Relocation

     

  2. Pegs for Bars, Frame (updated 01/04/09)

     

    1. There are several vendors that offer forward extension of boards / controls

       

    2. Forget the bars if you want forward board / control relocation - use these instead.
      Note: some say you can use the Lindy Bars with forward relocation.

      5 inch board extensions

      I took off my guards and used the above to give me leg room - attached to the front down tubes, extend past the shifter and brake pedals - plenty of room for me - with my 5 inch extension in place.

      See the silver round button head screw to the right of the kickstand?  Originally there was nothing there. You need to look at the kickstand and see where it hits that place. Take a magic marker and mark where it's touching. Take the bracket off or if you can do this while it's on the bike that will work too. You then drill a hole with a .201 drill bit, tap it 1/4 20 all the way through. Then you put a stainless steel button head screw 1/2 inch long in the hole.  After the screw is in the hole you grind the button head of the screw until the kickstand stops at the place you desire.  Make sure the screw is in the hole tight before you start grinding on it.  :-)

       

       

      Here's a pic of the screw from the side to show how thin mine is.

       

      Hope this makes sense. If you can't figure it out you can take the directions to a mechanic and I'm sure he can do it for you.

 

  • From TJ (tj1100cl): -- you could probably get the same spacer effect by jb welding a washer in the same spot, or on the kickstand itself in the same contact spot.

  • Another Way to Kick it Out For Easier Grab with the Foot

     

    JollyRoger15: I simply put two washers between the kickstand block and the frame at the rearward bolt. It angled the stand out just enough to make it easy to put it down.
