My Supa 5's centre stand seems to have worn so that both wheels are still on the deck when she's 'up and over'. I have just stumbled upon this. Can somebody please tell me what it's meant to do and where on earth it is meant to be installed? There doesn't seem to be one on my bike.

Hi Gentle Giant,
You probably know this by now but this is inserted into a hole on the centre stand and as you push the bike off the stand this acts as a cushion to stop the stand banging off the frame when its spring pulls the stand up. This is not going to do anything for your problem. Look at wear in the stand hinges or pins. By the way are you using correct size tyres? If the profile is higher on a replaced tyre this can cause the same problem. Cheers,GDMZ59
