I have revo and couldn't put on main centre stand because shorty is low. Can only use the stock side stand bike comes with. Did you get chrome or black?

for spec 2 & 3, OEM or aftermarket mainstand is compatible, meaning, can fix.

 

only for Revo models, dunnoe why, maybe the design or where the pipe body is, blocking/restricting where the mainstand position up or down, hence cannot fix.

dear guys i mean i already have main stand on my spec 2. if i wanna install shorty, will my main stand get in the way?

[ResmeN]

So do you have revo or spec 2/3? Main stand will get it in the way on revo but spec 2/3 as Kev's advised will be ok.

[edwardthy]

can i ask if compare GPR and moriwaki, which one sounds nicer? comptemplating though..

mine is spec 2. I had aftermarket main stand installed now. I heard if wanna install shorty, if kena the main stand, may have to remove. i dun wanna remove my main stand cos its damn bloody useful.

You will find that Moriwaki sounds better. Check out the vids posted on youtube of both exhausts on cb400.

If you wanna install shorty on revo it will kena the main stand. I wouldn't want to remove the main stand either if I was you but since you have spec 2 mori shorty will be fine.

If possible to be on the safe side try to trial fit the shorty with the main stand. I'm thinking you may have to take the main stand off, fit the shorty then put the main stand back on at worst.

my answer is.......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

no need. http://main.slackriders.com/images/smiles/icon_mrgreen.gif

 

if your gona DIY, u'll need both stands to alternate if u're lazy to loosen the radiator.. which I did...

cos the inner 2 header's bolts are abit pain in the a$$ to reach.

 

BUT, be reminded. The Shorty's mid-can(the last mounting point, near the mainstand hinge) is lower than other types of pipes.

mine's already war scratched proven... http://main.slackriders.com/images/smiles/icon_neutral.gif

my question would be, y compare?

 

cos IMO, each pipe has its own definite uniqueness.

 

in the end, its up to each individual's preferences. http://main.slackriders.com/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

aisey.. ResmeN, you can speak singlish sia... woots..

 

actually, ResmeN, have you ever tried of fixing the OEM mainstand with yr shorty on?

 

I mean, to try affix with both on.

Of cos, I saying without the knowledge of how the shorty's construction on(or rather below) a Revo.

But if maybe if there's pictures(frm you, or anyone out here riding a Revo with a Shorty), I can help see if its possible yah..

[TheLOVEguru]

Hi Kev,

i agree main stand is very useful. currently im using ss shorty (legal) @ spec2 , cause the design very low, its not possible to install main stand. if anyone manage to install it, pls kindly share the knwldge, cause i want to have it also

okok, back to topic, Im on a Spec 3 bol d'Or, with a SS shorty, & I hv OEM mainstand together with the shorty on. no probs.

the mainstand was installed way before i put on the shortys...

[Kevs]

p.s. kindly ignore the wordings and the torn exhaust wrap, the wrap has long been removed.

 

& no. the exhaust does not or are not in the way of the mainstand when in use or kept up.

 

oya, spec 2, 3 & Revo are using the same mainstand.

only PB1 are different & the driving centre's "L" model S4s are using PB1's too.

Bro where u buy oem stand ?

[Kevs]

Bro where u buy oem stand ?

 

last tried, FJT, $200++, 2 years back, nt sure if still got stock now.

 

last check Mah @ Bendemeer also has it, but the price is ridiculously over priced... w/o gst & labour fees included.

[TheLOVEguru]

Kev,

 

original main stand for spec 2 / spec 3 able to fit in ?

 

i notice that the torn wrapper is very close to the exhaust, is it because very close till it torn like that?

[Kevs]

yes, as i what i posted earlier.

spec 2, 3 & Revo using same mainstand.

& Im(riding a spec 3) using the exhaust with the stand.

 

as for the torn wrap, its becos its torn, so the wrapper is kinda like "resting" on the stand.

but actually the exhaust is not touching the stand @ all..

[TheLOVEguru]

oic,, sweeeeet....

in that case, anyone selling their main stand? hihhii

[Kevs]

if got budget constraints, aftermarket mainstands frm HKL, MW, Unique also can fit.

 

but i still prefer OEM... http://main.slackriders.com/images/smiles/icon_mrgreen.gif

er, cant seem to find the thread for the mainstand.

 

so here goes, the aftermarket's slightly longer & when in use, the bike may rock side to side abit.

the aftermarket doesnt have the lock nut for the hinge.

the aftermarket's spring arent in rubber sleeves and are not vertically parrallel when in use.

the aftermarket's hinge is longer & the split pin is slightly far off from the washer.

 

er... i think thats all.

 

hearsay gt ppl broke the aftermarket mainstand step and springs also...
