it took me many years to figure out what was on the cover of cycle world. a 1996 cbr 900 rr kickstand was used. I found 1 on ebay . of course it had to be cut ,lengthened,then turned on lathe ,then weld a foot on but I could not ask for a better positioning ,function, or mount.

No . I am a master certified tech in just about every brand. Sans Harley,my Buell is the only of that ilke I mess with. Any way, it is looser than necessary but believe me I am well aware of the damage that a tight belt will cause . I've seen it all.

Nice ride! Did you do all the polishing of the cases, swing arm, etc.? How was it done or did you buy them? You have given me some great ideas for improvements to my S2.
