WTB: kickstand for an 03 ec 250

[dank]

I need a kickstand for my ec250, as it seems that whenever i need it most, i always seem to misplace my handy dandy lean my bike on tree. and as my bike didnt have one when i bought it, i need one. so if anyone knows of a company that makes aftermarket ones, has an extra sitting around that will fit, or knows if there is a crossover part from another bike such knowledge would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

remember... i have a stand, if you can find a mount....

and how much would it cost me again? and where are you?

 

[jhendr3702]

amarillo tx... i will shoot a pix of it tonight and post up...
it will be pretty cheap as the mount is broken..

DANK, I was going to ask where you were also. If you're in the states I might have a mount and spring (but no stand). If I still have it the mount has been repaired (welded).
I'll check to see if I still have the stuff tonight and PM you.

alright thanks!

maybe between me and you we can put one together....
mine is a stand spring and a broken mount

sorry, I don't have the mount or a spring. I must have used them on the kids bike when I put his kickstand on. jhendr3702 is your best bet.
Good luck.

here is what i have... the spare kickstand is more straight than the one on my 01 300, so i am not sure on the year, or maybe mine is bent...
let me know

broken mount...

kickstand... with broken mount

what my 01 looks like...

you know to be quite honest i have no clue how exactly the mount hooks up to the bike its self. but let me know what you want for what you've got and i can probably rig something to work, ive got a whole shop full of tools at my disposal. so ya let me know how much you'd like for it, and how you would like payment, and ill see what i want to do from there. how exactly is the mount broken? because it looks like it has been welded but im not entirely sure how they work to know how its broken.
Thanks!

 

[dank]

nevermind, i figured it out. easy fix. let me know how much you want for it and i will see what i can do about getting it. alls id do is grind all the old weld off and then just weld a small piece of plate to it and drill a hole through it. easy.
Thanks!

 

[jhendr3702]

yeah... should look like this. the mounting tab is gone off this one. had a new mount,but sold it to another guy on here...
how about 20.00 shipped... pm me your address and i will get it to you. if it is all ok, you can either send me money or i will give you my paypal acct..
let me know

Sounds good to me. I'll probably have my parents send you a check, im 17 BTW. i will talk to them tonight and pm you my address.
Thanks!

 

[jhendr3702]

be fine... i have one about your age too.... if they need to contact me, let me know..

man i am getting old..

 

[dank]

wait a second. what is the mount made out of? take a magnet to it and see, because if it's aluminum, and it might be, it will take significantly more rigging to make work. which is fine, i just want to know what im up against.

 

[Brian]

I'm fairly certain its Al.

 

[jhendr3702]

will do...

 

[dank]

actually by judging the rust in the pics it looks to be steel. maybe i can get the welding class to weld it if its aluminum.

 

[jhendr3702]

magnet will stick to it....

 

[jostby]

They are steel. I mig-welded the one I broke and it held up fine. Just keep the bolts tight. One of the bolts holds the lower chain roller.
