Michaels idea seems the sensible solution when my stand did not work well after weldong metal on the feet Dave said he would make a new one which I had just fitted when he passed so could not say how well it worked, Dave was a fine engineer I met hi twice an all round good bloke.

When I fitted a Dave Hills stand, I found the rear tyre was just touching the ground. After checking with packers as above, to see what needed adding, I bent up some 1/4" ally plates , same size as the stand feet, then drilled and tapped the feet and mounted the ally packers with CSK screws. There is hardly any extra weight (for the spring to contend with ) and can be removed or changed as and when required.
It was done without removing the stand.
Regards all,
Terry.
