Fahrwerk / chassis

hi buddies,

here a little description how to use the center stand at the gen1,
but without carrying it with you all day long. 

A        How to install it permanent is described in the manual

B        What pieces `n parts you need for permanent use shows you this microfiche.

C       list of all art.-no´s :

D       what is to put off?

1.           muffler (LH)

2.           con. pipe (LH)

3.           bracket for the "Flipper"

4.     the "Flipper"

E        the "TRICK" .....

.... for all those who do not want to keep the center stand on all the time, but want it "just for the workshop", there is a way to customize this "Flipper" bracket (# 3) so that it can remain on the bike and you can very quickly disassemble the "Flipper" and screw on the center. (the bracket and the flipper can´t be used without the customizing)

what additional components you need - only - for the trick :

part	(Fiche)	art.-no.	St.
center	( 13 )	42100-24820	1
center main bolt	( 14 )	42254-24F00	1
guide sleeve in center	( 15 )	42253-24F00	2
stopping bolt	( 20 )	42252-24F00	1
metallic self saving nut	( 21 )	08319-31103	1

how to ?

here are the instructions.

hold on to the thing when the stop bolt (# 20) is in - then it quickly becomes clear where and how much one has to go.

you have to trim the bracket (# 3) so that it give "space" for the stop bolt  (# 20) .

simply along the RED line, cut / shorten in the middle through the welded sleeve (kinda pipe) and detach the rest of this sleeve from the bracket. ("clean it")

this leaves a semicircle (bush) that clicks at the stop bolt (# 20) and brings stability against "wobbling" again.

tighten the two retaining screws (M8)  (# 3.1) to approx. 23 Nm.

now, after disassembling the center, the "Flipper" can be reassembled - the holder does just fine without this cut-off guide bush.

one more thing.

the retaining bolt (# 20) for the center can usually only be got in if the rear bolt of the exhaust manifold (and therefore also the muffler) of the original exhaust manifold system is removed and the manifold a bit pressed down.

use a sturdy lever and use force to bend the manifold downwards so far that you can now push the stop bolt (# 20) in and then tighten the metal self-locking (s.s.) nut (21) with approx. 25 Nm.
(the "right" value cannot be found anywhere in the manual)

however, if a 4-1 is installed, it is of course super easy - "flipper" off, insert center with its two sleeves / bushes and screw in the long bolt (# 14) and the center is ready for use.

the center´s springs are not needed in the workshop - so everything is mega easy.
