Jim You are probably right on that, long time ago......I do remember how pretty the girlfriend was though !.......not much else I have FBG pipes on my H2B......though I really have no desire to put the center stand on it, too heavy, I did find the 4" long pin that goes thru the mounting holes, I bought one, looks like new.......I put it on with the cotter pin........figure I could notch a peice of 2X4 and put it on a lift and use the pin to jack it up.....maybe THX Phil |

The top seems to look the same as our kickstands.  Little pricey though.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Powerstands-Adj ... 3920070%26 |

I just figured out why no one on here uses their center stand. It is because once you get it off, there is no way to stretch that stupid spring to get it back on! Ya'll are just afraid to admit it!  Really, anyone got any hints? I've even tried using a drum brake spring stretching tool. |

One trick is to bend the spring and insert pennies all over the place, making it longer. Then you pull out the pennies. I just grabbed the end with Vise-Grips and pulled last time I did one, which was long ago. |

The main thing that concerns me is that this whole thing is down right dangerous. I guess I better eat my Wheaties. |

You have to stick enough stuff in there to make it so long it reaches without pulling on it. |
