Re: Softer Stand Spring

Can you get softer stand springs that don’t clatter the rear runners and are easier to push off the stand? Have you got the return rubber on the side stand leg to stop this happening? I think that no innocenti stand had the little bit on that a rubber was put over- Its one of the things the Spanish...
