Red J Posted May 13, 2005 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red J Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red J Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share 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.

Stealth Posted June 9, 2005 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbird Posted June 9, 2005 Share 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.
