[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 121091, member: 60"] Re 16H Rear stand My 52 Trophy has a rear stand like that, wonderful until you hit a real bump then... clang, clang, clang! most annoying and yes it is a new spring. tighten the bolts or increase spring pressure (the end spring hole is big) and then the right foot backwards cant move it. On the Vincent the thackeray washers and lock nuts are there to set it how you want it. My rear stand is secured by a knurled circular knob with an embeded reflector so the stand is tight, I have a Hills stand for normal use. I have just been out on the first shake down run on the Comet (Oh the bliss of the lecy start! ). I needed to adjust the front brake and the rear chain thats when the rear stand is an absolute boon.
