bolt on kickstand
kxtaz:
i made a bracket [similar to bracket on wr426] and slightly modified a old rmx kickstand i had laying around.kickstand bracket mounts to frame not to swing arm.it was fairly simple and works great.i'll take a couple pictures and post them.hopefully that will help.

Funny thing.... I can't even see mine when I'm riding! It's a Utah stand.
After 5 yrs with Harley crowd, it's kinda funny to see how much dirtbike folk care about the looks of their bikes. I've always been a function over form kinda guy. (But I did replace the butt ugly purple shrouds that came on my KX.)

Hey Kxtaz, pretty slick setup. I have been looking for a kickstand for an older guy I ride with, but neither of us much care for the clamp on style. Think I will build one of these to see how we like it. However, to save me some time, how long is your kickstand from the center of the bolt to the end of the stand leg?
Thanks
Rick
