Keith,
Thanks- I seem to have located everything except the spring itself, which Peter is offering to supply in September.
So I’ll leave these to those in greater need.
Regards,
Alan

Hello Wulfgang
I do not have an original stand.
Is the internal dia of the tube 18.7mm
so both end pieces will fit into them?
What is the wall thickness so i can
make mine strong enough!
What does the small spring and ball bearing do?
It must act as some kind of locator
hope you can help
best wishes
Ian

Hello,

here a few more sketches of my ABC stand, as it is with other ABC motorcycles I can't say, but it's all quite logical and works quite well.
I hope that I can help with it, also I can take much information from this forum to bring my motorcycle back on the road.
If there are still questions I help gladly further.

Greetings

Wolfgang

Hi,
This is for Peter Gillespie.

A few months back I asked for help on rebuilding the main stand spring mechanism, and I received lots of information from Wolfgang and others- many thanks to all.

Peter - you kindly offered to let me ( and Ian) have one of the main stand torsion springs you had made up.
This is just to re-establish contact ahead of September and confirm my interest in purchasing a spring when convenient.
What’s the best way to communicate on this? Happy to use the forum or more direct means if more convenient. Not sure what the protocol is!

Regards,
Alan Taylor
