Side-stand
- On level ground,
straddle the motorcycle and bring it to the fully upright position.
- Move the side-stand
up to the stored position and down to the fully extended position
several times. It should move smoothly
and quietly. Make sure the return spring holds
the side-stand tightly in place when the side-stand is in the stored
position.
Adjust or replace a loose spring.
- Inspect the side-stand
pivot bolt for looseness or wear. Tighten or replace a loose or worn
bolt.
- Periodically test
the side-stand safety switch for proper operation. With the transmission
in gear and brakes applied, attempt
to start the engine while the side-stand is
down. The engine should NEVER start in any gear except neutral if
the side-stand
is down. If the engine starts during this
test, see your dealer for service.
