Looking for a side stand 65 R50/2**Found one**

I've heard that name. Snowbum has a good article on the range of side stands:

He seems to indicate that the Farley stand is made by VanFarowe.

Kurt .....
It's all making sense now. Thanks. VanFarowe makes the Farley side stand. Anyway, I have two and have never had any issue with either. They are both very solid side stands. When I first contacted VanFarowe in June he never called me back so I assumed he was no longer making them. When he answered the phone today I was very happy. IMHO $155 delivered is a very fair price.

I have a sidestand for sale. It is the stainless one like this:

I bought it, installed it, but I found I prefer the brown type side stand.
$100 plus shipping from CA.

I saw those on Spike Buck's website but I didn't like the look of those either. I went with the Farley side stand and I'm very happy with it. $155 delivered in 3 days.

Thanks. The new Hoske exhaust has been ordered to replace the old straight pipes that are currently in the photo.
