    I'm ratting through boxes of bits looking for something and I found this bracket. .. 20201230_151713.jpg 20201230_151730.jpg

    Scratching my head trying to remember what it is.
    Is it a BMW f800 sidestand bracket? No part number or mark on it anywhere.

    Thanks Beet. Took me a while of figuring out, no idea how I ended up with it though.
    I've had 2 f800s, both were sold with their side stands.
    Hmm.

    Edit: the f800gs adventure had been lowered, came with a short stand on it and stock length stand in a box. Maybe this too I guess. I think the original owner is on here and could confirm...DJ?

    Next question... anyone wanna buy it? :)

    Amazing the crap I've accumulated . I sure don't seem to be too good at throwing things away.

    Why do you reckon I sold them lol.
    This bit weighs about 3 times as much as it looks like it should.
    And $220. What a crock. I'd hate to see the BMW price.

    Bastards charged me $54 for a countersunk m10 x 14 centre stand bolt. Plus washer, plus nut. Crunts .
    Couldn't get anything similar anywhere else, and yes, tried all the wreckers.
