Dragontest Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 I'm new to trials bikes. Can anyone help. So I've just bought a universal side stand where would be the correct place to fix it on my GasGas JT25 1995 bike. Swinging arm or on the frame?

pjw123 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 You need to fit it to the swing arm. There should be captive nuts there. Doesn't look like a GG stand though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I couldn't find one on eBay for sale but found this universal one, hopefully it will do the job, I got fed up with the bike falling over, when others just put a side stand down.

I use a tree, rock or a log.......... if none of those are available, I have leaned it against a buddy's bike. Or just lay it on the ground, that's her happy place anyway. Spends enough time there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d2w Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Or what about getting the OEM stand from someplace like Trials Bike Breaker? They're even on your side of the pond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're even on your side of the pond. Seems like a good plan. But if you want to use the one you’ve bought, you’ll have to cut out and drill a bracket to attach it to, then carefully work out and mark the exact position where it needs to go, then get someone to weld it on. Then clean up and paint. Edited August 18, 2019 by trapezeartist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
