Centre stand fitment
Hi folks,
I'm in the process of fitting some kit to my new (to me) XT600E. One of these things is a SW Motech centre stand. This might sound like a dumb question but I thought I'd ask just in case.
Any one out there fitted a centre stand? It seems straight forward but the pin which is removed and replaced by a longer one that attaches the stand to the bike seemed very hard to remove which made me think it might be under tension. Looking closer the piece of metal that the pin passes through also seems to be attached to the bottom of the rear shock? Anyway, to cut this ramble short: Can I remove this pin no problem or does it hold the back end together and as soon as I pull it out will there be a loud 'Boing!' as my bike springs into bits?
Cheers,
Matt
