Re: Centre Stand
Thanks for all the advice! I think the consensus is that the kettle is a heavy bike, some struggle, some find it pops on. I think there's a combination of technique and confidence, I'm getting there. What an amazing bike though, love it! Just put it into Ray Cowles for a carb balance, running slightly rough when cruising!

Check that the peg isn't bent downward. It should be parallel to the ground to give clearance.Burblebloke wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 1:24 pm Thanks for all the advice!

Selwyn still owns and runs Ray Cowles, walking in there is like stepping back many years in time!
