If ya do wanna lube your rear chain, I have found the safest way is to get a small bungee and hook one end around the bottom of the kick-stand where
the small welded stop is located and the other end to the hole in the lower left faring just to keep constant forward pressure on the kickstand while you
lift the bike up and down off of the rear spools.I also use a foot long 2X4 nailed to a foot long 1X4 to put the kickstand on to get the bike in more of an
upright position for the rear stand hooks to engage the spools. Just remember to use the wooden piece only to lift the bike up. Lower it all the way to
the garage floor when you are done.
'No fold - all gold.'
That works at home but not at a gas station............we DEMAND a locking kickstand mod...............it would sell like Marilyn Monroe in 1954 to a bunch of
horny sailors. Who on this board had the "knowledge" to either do it, or knows someone who can do it? Who is the "king of turning an idea into a
reality"? I throw it out there, gentlemen.
Plus, with a locking kickstand, some drunk Harley muther cannot fall backwards and land on the rear of your bike and push it forward and have the
stand fold up. Think about that picture.
