INSTALLATION
| 1. | Block the motorcycle underneath the frame so the vehicle is upright and level. The sidestand should be able to move through its full range of travel without the weight of the motorcycle resting on it. | 
Figure 1. Sidestand Assembly | ||||||||||||||
| 2. | See Figure 1. Use the Spring Tool (HE-52B) to unhook the spring (6) from the extension plate (5) and the cast-in brace (2) on the sidestand leg (1). | |||||||||||||||

Position the spring to the sidestand, with the end (2) that is more closed next to the hole in the spring extension plate. NOTE Orient the hook (2) as shown in Figure 1 , with the open edge facing AWAY from the sidestand leg. The hooks can be rotated to better align with the holes. | |||||||||||||||
