Red J Posted May 13, 2005 Posted May 13, 2005 I have a project that is drawing to completion, to build a centerstand stop closely matching the TiForce stop. It is a pretty simple, elegant little stop. I'm assuming those of you that need one of these, know who you are. I'm considering building them out of stainless or Titanium . Post here if you're interested in one. I have no idea what they will cost at this point. I will post photos of the TiForce installed on my bike sometime this weekend, such that you guys can see what I'm talking about. Interested members: 1. Redbird 2. G4XX 3. Wario 4. XXTi 5. slyxdevil 6. Stealth (AU) 7. SD Marc 8. Squareman357 9. Keith (interested for his brother) 10. Dano 11. Noach1 Quote

We're still talking centerstand stop with nothing (no mufflers or pipe) on the left, correct? :?: :?: Quote
Red J Posted May 14, 2005 Author Posted May 14, 2005 I will have photos of it on my bike tomorrow. The TiForce piece is constructed of stainless steel. I will be quoting the part in both stainless and titanium. The part weighs: Stainless: .40 lb Titanium: .28 lb So we are looking at 1/8 lb savings in weight by going to titanium. I can probably cut some holes in it, to save a few more hundredths. J. Quote
G4XX Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 That is pretty slick.... can't wait for the pictures! Quote
Wario Posted May 14, 2005 Posted May 14, 2005 Look at you Mr. CAD drawing!!! Nice! I'm not worried about 10th of a gram... but I would like it to be sexy - Sign me up. Any gross estimate on the price? 0->$100, $100-> $1000...? :wink: Quote
Northman Posted May 15, 2005 Posted May 15, 2005 I'm in! :wink: If I can't get one made out of titanium, then I'll just have my stainless one back Quote
Red J Posted May 15, 2005 Author Posted May 15, 2005 Sign me up. Any gross estimate on the price? 0->$100, $100-> $1000...? :wink: Should have quotes for this one within a week, for both titanium and stainless. Quote
XXTi Posted May 15, 2005 Posted May 15, 2005 That looks interesting. I'm probably in too. I'll look forward to seeing it on your bike. Are you coming to MEGAXX? Quote
Red J Posted May 15, 2005 Author Posted May 15, 2005 That looks interesting. I'm probably in too. I'll look forward to seeing it on your bike. Are you coming to MEGAXX? Unfortunately, I did not have time to fit it to the bike before sending it back to Northman. As such, I have no fotos. Unfortunately x2, I will not be at Mega. However, both Northman and the TiForce stop will be there... J. Quote
Redbird Posted May 15, 2005 Posted May 15, 2005 Unfortunately x2, I will not be at Mega. Unacceptable. Don't make me come down there. Quote
Northman Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 Unfortunately x2, I will not be at Mega. Unacceptable. Don't make me come down there. Yeah, same goes for me! :evil: Quote
Wario Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 Turns out the great guy (Mike) that I got the 2 bros from has the centerstand stop and is gonna ship it to me. So, I'll take a pass on another one until I can see mine. I'll be watching the thread though, sound like they are gonna be cool. Quote
Redbird Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 .... until I can see mine Here ya go, two brothers centerstand stop, pic compliments of JasonW- Quote
Red J Posted May 17, 2005 Author Posted May 17, 2005 The one I'm thinking about designing now, is similar to that one. But more secure. I will be working on it later this month, I think you guys will like it. Details will be shared once I have a rough model, and I am confident what I have will work. J. Quote
G4XX Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 J-- Any new developments on this yet? :submissive: Quote
Red J Posted June 9, 2005 Author Posted June 9, 2005 Have design, have not built anything yet. Is on schedule for this nexxt week. J. Quote
Stealth Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 I'm interested... depending on price naturally. Anyone got a solution to the ugly foot lever that will be left sticking out? Quote
Redbird Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 Anyone got a solution to the ugly foot lever that will be left sticking out? 1)Remove centerstand 2)Take it over to Jeff's house, have him section out about 4" of the footlever. 3)Re-install centerstand. 4)Stand back and admire. 5)Remove centerstand again and wait for Jeremy to make the stop. Of course, you may not know Jeff, in which case you'll need to know how to weld, or have your own version of Jeff out there somewhere. Quote
G4XX Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 Have design, have not built anything yet. Is on schedule for this nexxt week.J. No rush. I have just been keeping an eye on this one... Quote
