I recently visited a friend (after not seeing him for over a decade) - I mostly use the center stand but opted to use the side stand. The stand didn't engage fully and the bike (and me) toppled over into his car, leaving a nice dent in the passenger door.
We had a good chat and he has kept in touch with the bill from the garage for me!
Has anyone else had similar problems and is there any way to rectify the problem?
There is a little play on the final part of travel of the stand - is this just wear and the only solution is to completely replace it (and possibly the center stand)?
Many thanks.
