Center stand stop

Been there

I swapped my exhaust for a Nojima megaphone and lost my center stand stop. Do you know if there is an aftermarket accessory to create a new stop?

Looking forward to your recommendations.
 
I used a metal hose clamp on the muffler. I aligned the screw head of the clamp to a position that allowed it to act as the stop.

Hey, Nemo, when it's all done, how about a picture or two, please?

Crisis averted. The new exhaust (Nojima Megaphone) doesn't have the "ledge" where the center stand stops when tucked in, therefore, the center stand was going all the way up and resting on my chain.

I removed the rubber pad that made contact with the ledge and in the hole it left installed a 5" carriage bolt, one not to secure it and another to jam the first. Covered the bolt with heat shrink, and Loc-Tited a threaded rubber bushing on the tip of the bolt.









Now the bike has a new look and sound.



There's a flaw to my "under the mango tree" engineering but I hope it will withstand it.

Peace!
 
Nemo i quite like the look of your system especially when it's black, just be aware that it will be happy to follow the swingarm with every move it makes and polishes the underside where the plastic buffer hits it.

Short of fabricating a metal plate of your choice that bolts to the flat gusset behind the double springs on the left hand side with two bolts and stops the upward rotation at the support of the centerstand and is out of sight in all cases i don't have a better idea, and yes, i have wondered what the "new "sound was when i moved the bike after playing with the exhaust only to find the centerstand having it on with the chain, a sheepish look ensued......

And so we tinker on:banana:
 
That pipe suits the bike very well. Nice one. And nice fix too.
