Big thanks for the tip for fitting the spring. I was thinking how on earth to get this in place until i found your video👍👍 I used a thick steel wire instead of the shoestring. Now my Aprilia Tuareg 660 has a nice center stand.
Search “Honda NC750X Main Centre Stand Easy Install” exactly like that with centre spelled that way. It’s on “Nicks Episode” channel. So much better than the strength pull the spring back or the ratchet strap to the rim. It does require a bit of strength to align the stand to the holes for the shaft to get taped in but nothing like the strength required to pull the spring back with the stand installed full into position. Truly the single best way to install this.
Many people who put on center stands only put on enough grease to warrant putting the stand down once a day or so. I think maybe you nailed the amount necessary to put the stand down 10k times a second.
I bought a Motion Pro Heavy Duty Spring Puller for $16. Mounted the stand on the bike first, then springs. The springs took about 10 seconds for the narrow one first, and then about 30 seconds for the second fat spring (it took me two pulls to get it hooked on). It's amazing what having the right tool for the job can do. 🙄
Great video. I bought a new scooter and the center stand spring is not connected. I've watched several videos trying to figure out how to do this. This seems like the best solution. I hope it is a solution. I'll try it.
Its not "Rocket Science" I fitted a Center Stand to an old 1970's GT550 without the aid of a manual. It was a lot wider than the one you fitted, and I did not need to remove any of the four pipes to install it. It was just simple mechanically logic, the only thing I had to wrestle with was the return spring, but I got there in the end.
Rather than using RATCHET STRAP....use automotive BRAKE SPRING pliers, did on mine and it was quick and easy from left side of bike. Hook front springs first then use pliers on rear ones. EASY PEASY.
that spring nothing ever made me that angry got up today had a coffee thinking its a nice easy 10min job how wrong i was the more i couldnt do it the more angry i was getting got it in the end but it put me in a bad mood for the hole day
Thanks for posting the install instructions. I have been trying to get a center stand for my 2007 Honda 919 for 2 years. Not an easy task. Any suggestions.
thats ALOT of greace , ty for the video.. please tell me your bike is brand brand new .. like havent seen the road , cause DAMN its clean under it haha
Can you do a video on getting it onto the stand? I have the centre stand on my bike, but I'm having trouble getting it onto the stand. I tried the usual rock back and lift, but it's just too heavy
Stand on the stand with your right foot as you are standing up on it and when you are pulling up with your right hand then her weight will be minimum and she will lift up in a second. Cheers! 😉😉😉

Way to much white grease. if that drips off what's right behind it...... The rear wheel and if it drips while you're in a turn a bye, bye to you and your bike.
ratchet strap to pull the spring back is genius!
Thanks for the video. I received my center stand kit with no directions - you've provided the solution - was installed in under an hour. Thank you!
Nice video !
You cannot imagine how easy is to put the spring first and then the axle....
Your video is the best so far.... plenty of light so we can see unlike some of the other videos on this subject ..

Getting that spring stretched and attached is real tricky! Great video and your bike is impressively clean.

I liked the speed up parts, good editing. More you tubers should be that self aware about when they say things that are redundant or irrelevant.

Lol my thought exactly. I don't think I was sparing but he made me nervous now lol
You Can’t use too much on that application
Thanks. I hope your bike has seen road time since putting on the center stand because that underside is (was) super SUPER clean.

Very nice instruction! Not too fast just good! Thank you! Greetings from Amsterdam Holland
Yes - thanks so much for posting this - I will have to do the same soon and your video is a tremendous help!
Nice job I will try it on my project bike that I have to refit the center stand onto .Thanks : )
Very helpful thank you. The tip on using a ratchet was justbwhatnI needed.
That was a great idea, thanks for posting

Спасибо за обзор. У меня закусило штифт опорный спустя 6 лет и он сместился относительно уха

The center stand that you reference on Amazon says it's for the 700 series Honda not the 750. Is it the same Center stand for the 700 and 750? Thanks.

last time i did it i attached the spring first then put the pin in, a bit fiddly but easier...
I have a Honda NM4 and I was wondering if this center stand would work for it. Thank you.🙏
Thanks. How was the helium ?
Hahaha
that spring nothing ever made me that angry got up today had a coffee thinking its a nice easy 10min job how wrong i was the more i couldnt do it the more angry i was getting got it in the end but it put me in a bad mood for the hole day

Thanks for the video. Did you put screw glue on the spring holder?
Great video mate,very informative
Yes, I can hear Micky mouse in this video! 😂😂😂😂

Nice video, thank you for sharing 👍👍👍

Press down hard on foot leaver, just as it starts to lift pull back on handlebars.
One of the best motorcycle teachers on RUclips (IMO) shows how it's done...

Stand on the stand with your right foot as you are standing up on it and when you are pulling up with your right hand then her weight will be minimum and she will lift up in a second. Cheers! 😉😉😉
Very helpful 👍
pegging spring will not make it come in
swearing on spring will make it fit 😂
How are you holding the bike? i need to do this in my motorcycle and if you can tell me hold are you doing this it would be helpful.

Yeeeeap! Screw glu :)
Dont follow this. Just look up the instructions on the internet. Spring goes before shaft.
Not enough grease...
Way to much white grease. if that drips off what's right behind it...... The rear wheel and if it drips while you're in a turn a bye, bye to you and your bike.
