Hi Guys, my new to me cb250n has a very dodgy center stand. I would like to know if this unit is correct for the bike, and if it is, where do the bumps stop fit. You can see in the photos how close it is to the chain. The nearside of the pivot shaft has something broken / missing ? Obviously previous attempts to renovate did not include the centre stand Thanks for any replies. Bob

I'm assuming that its on a 2 into 1 exhaust? if its a motad I think they came with a rubber block underneath the silencer? I have a couple chucking about somewhere but it'll be the weekend before I can have a look

Thanks buster.
The exhaust is a Motad, but the stand is a long way from the silencer .
I need to find a photograph of bike with a 2 into1 to see how the stand fits .
Can anyone on here with a 2 into 1 send me a photograph to show how the centre stand bump stop works.
Bob

I've got a 400 and 250 both with Motads on them at the moment. I will try to take a few pics tomorrow and get them on here for you. I'm not home 'til late tonight.

It fits on the same bolting point as the exhaust.

Should have come with the exhaust, but not complicated to make.

Thanks John, that is an offer I cannot refuse.
PM your details and price including postage .
Duffer, can you look at your centre stand , as in my last but one photograph, and show me if your nearside pivot bush looks the same, or do I
have something missing . Thanks to all.

Bob That, mate, is what we call around here SNAFU Situation Normal (All Not great) Up. Seriously, that's how they look. Supposedly clamped on at the brake pedal side with a (probably) rusted in 10mm nut and bolt. Go at it with some WD, then oil, then grease

HI Andy,
Thanks for all the photographs, it just seems so cheap from Honda, just to have the nearside stub sitting through the outer plate with no bearing . When the outer plate is worn
you have a wonky stand. hey ho...
wonder if anyone has modified theirs.
I will have to remove the whole caboodle and check it over. The stand moves freely, but needs a new spring so it has to come off.
The petrol tank is sitting in the garden full of vinegar for a couple of days, hopefully will come clean and usable.
Bob
