The stand has landed and donation made however it has serious damage to the lever arm vine been snapped/cut off at some point that will need welding and filing etc so will just be used as as a garage stand so I am still on the look out for a decent stand that at most just needs a paint if any one has one for sale.

I didn't know you wanted a show standard centre stand? Can you post a pic on here of it for us to see? It looked to me like it was substantially corrosion free to support the bike
it was designed for without any serious damage on it.
As far as I know, it was used regularly on the Z900 I bought off David Higgspeed, just that it had a weak spring on it, maybe from the bike standing too long in storage.
It was dangling a bit too low so I asked him to remove it before I bought the bike and rode it, to be on the safe side.
I'll look for another one for you meanwhile.
Best wishes, Jay.

No problem Jay pictures below as requested.

Just to clarify I am not looking for a show stand stand just a standard stand. I am more than capable of tidying one up. As you can see the lever arm is substantially shorter and at a different angle to standard and will not correctly clear the standard exhaust. I would need to take the lever off add another section and reweld. If you had mentioned before hand I would have declined the offer but it is not a problem you sent in good faith. Once I have a standard stand I will offer this one up on here for a donation to the H4H Cafe Racer fund. Once welded this would be fine for someone with a 4 into 1 fitted. In the meantime I will use to prop the bike up while I change the chain and sprockets so its being put to good use.

That explains why it was dangling too low! I've never had a bike with a
centre stand on before, I did say in the pm when I posted it, it would need
a bit of weld, but didn't know it wasn't long enough to clear 4-into-4 pipes.
You need a centre stand before the Blackpool rally...?

No Jay I am using a 4 into 1 for the rally but plan to fit a full system this winter. Plenty of time no worries plus this one is okay for now in the garage.
