Yes, it can be reused many times.

Still have a bunch available

Hey, sorry no progress on redesign although I did tweak them a bit to enlarge the counterbore for the swingarm nut. Don't have any available at the moment, I am booked out for quite a while. Might try to do something for the 6th gen in the future.

Put the cover on, you're good to go. You can change the clutch springs through the window without pulling the whole cover, too.

All paid orders have shipped - (7) stops remain available. Boxed and ready to ship...

Bumping this thread up, for those that will be receiving their parts in the coming week.

I made a dozen of the 6th gen parts. The 4 that have been paid for will ship later today or tomorrow morning. 2 more have dibs, so that makes 6 up for grabs. Boxed and ready to ship, email sebspeed2003@yahoo.com to order, more details above...

I have 10 in work and about half are spoken for. Should be able to ship paid orders this time next week.

Sorry all, I have been very busy(still am, actually). I can get going on the 6th gen parts but I have not been able to make time for figuring out the 5th gen solution. Interested parties can email me at sebspeed2003@yahoo.com, please put "centerstand stop" in the subject title and include your screen name/real name/mailing address in the body and I will respond with my paypal info.

I can adapt my design to work for the 5th gen. I need to work out pricing over the 6th gen version for the extra hardware to make a complete kit.

This right here is extremely useful. It lets me see that the planar surface the CS bolt torques down on, is coincident with the leftmost edge of the 5th gen cushion. I can use this info to modify the 6th gen design for 5th gen use. Based on p/n's in my notes below, the 6th gen bolt can replace the 5th gen bolt. Changing the bolt will allow fit of my stop to the 5th gen bike. I'll need to add a block at the front of my stop to engage the 5th gen cushion, or perhaps a bolt with nylon nuts could be used in place of that extra bit... I'll have a think on that. I will also need to include an extra

No self-respecting "first world" job shop can compete with China. I'd make more money working a minimum wage job for a day than trying to make a handful of those for $17, and that's the sad truth. IF someone had an automated cnc and better programming software than I do (ie, someone who has invested $50k+), AND they got an order for hundreds of these, then it might be worthwhile. My plastic part is fine at almost 50k with aftermarket sprockets for most of its life, I wouldnt hesitate to buy another for 50k of use.

I can definitely confirm that these will NOT bolt right up to a 5th gen. It looks like half the battle is the shape of the cushion, and the other half the method of attachment. I *think* the 6th gen bolt that these attach to, which is not present on the 5th gen, could be added to the 5th gen by R&R the left cstand bolt with a 6th gen bolt. I have not had time to confirm this. As for the shape of the cushion, the current stop design pushes against a section that does not exist on the 5th. But, the stop could be modified to engage the 5th cushion (furthe
