If you use the falco bracket and vtr leg and vtr switch all you need to do is weld a blob on the bracket to stop the leg going too far forward.
If you get the bike on a paddock stand it all makes sense when you have a look
No shit Sherlock !

Buy it

IF it is a USA side stand then its good


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Gonna make sure all the essentials are sorted first. I don't really leave the bike on its stand anyway.

With respect

Side stand is first

It sits on paddock stands at home and I don't really leave it anywhere.

It will be sorted but I have ordered ht leads and need brake pads yet so it's not at the top of my list.
