Re: 53 spring frame questions

It's a 1954 B31 stand and spring (swinging arm) which I had 'lying around'...I made the mounting plate, pivot bolt and some longer studs to attach it to the engine plates...I had to 'tweak' the stand leg slightly to get the lean of the bike just right after I'd mounted it...Ian

Re: 53 spring frame questions

Ian,

Something is wrong with the picture you posted! Why is there no puddle of oil under the bike?

Re: 53 spring frame questions

I fitted this from an Enfield. It locks down when weight is applied and an internal spring flips it up when the weight is taken off.

sorry, no oil puddle either - must be empty!

Re: 53 spring frame questions

Thanks for the pics of side stand options. I have a generic one, mounted behind the left footpeg but will explore moving it to the front.

Now, back to my original question:

Anyone have a picture of the brake switch set up on a spring frame?

Re: 53 spring frame questions

don't know how they came from the factory but here are the solutions I have on a B31 and M21
