Title: Aluminum center stand.....
Post by: dewjantim on October 30, 2007, 05:40:39 pm
Does anyone know if an aluminum center stand from the 500-750 twin cylinder REs will fit my classic bullet......Dew.

I think a lot of the early (british) bullets had the aluminum stands. Hard to say though just looking at pictures.

the one on fleabay, right? Nice looking piece. I guess you know this, but you could ask the seller for the critical dimensions; outside to outside on the mounting lugs, ID of the hole, inside to inside mounting lugs, and height. A photo with a ruler would give you all but one of those.

I'll be interested to hear if it fits, and I promise I won't bid against you.

If it were from a British Enfield, would not the alloy be Aluminium and not aluminum ;) ;)
