Good morning everyone I have a major issue my kickstand spring came off yesterday while cruising and possibly something else. I snapped a picture of it so maybe someone can tell me what all is missing. If theres anyone in ohio with a kickstand assembly who is wiling to sell or hook me up with a freebie please let me know!!!! Thanks in advance |

Bungee cord... Zip tied it to the kick stand and hook it into the hole in the body panel under your leg. Easy. I even keep it under the seat...just in case..! Mike |

> Why are springs busting? Earlier springs used a hook that was part of the springs winding, and it was prone to breaking. I know I went through about 5 of them in the first couple of years I owned the bike and rode on the street. The newer spring assembly uses a different hook than winding, and it's way, way better. |

i used a metal coat hanger! worked great cause its rigid enough to hold it but soft enough to when you want the kickstand down all you have to do is kick it down and the hanger will move out of the way! also there is a service bulletin out for the spring so take it to the dealer and do it for free (if you want but you wont get it tomorrow LOL) warranty doesnt matter..
