Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Afer much heat and hitting with a large club hammer, and grinding of the peens and bumps, the sidestand now comes up on the rubber. Now, just need a sunny day...

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Thanks to 2 gents at the H cafe today I had a look at 2 Zeds and both had the bracket pointing more outward, so I need figure how to bend it outward. Advice so far, heat and a big hammer!

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Clearance on the Metmachex swing arm is tight on both sides, it appears equidistant. But puling it out would further cause problem as the exhaust would pust the stand out further. Anyone know the dimension the frame should be between mounts? Mine seems to be 310mm from outside one mount to the the o...

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Wouldn't that pull it out rather than push it in? I suspect it was dropped and sidestand got pushed up as the bend is to the back.
That aside, anyone have any ideas on how to straighten it without having the bike stripped?

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Took the stand off yesterday and the mount appears to have a curve in it. I suspect this is not normal? Any ideas on straightening it as it’s a bit of a lump of metal!

Re: Side stand
A Google images search suggest that they do have the curve at the end as yours, I'm having fitting issues with mine right now that I don't know how to resolve. It too is similar shape to yours.
Z-Power replacement also has similar curve in it.

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
So, the saga continues...
Are side stands normally this bent? As you can see mine now doesn't come up onto the rubber rest, it did, so how do I adjust it? Any ideas as I'm sure this issue has been seen before.

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Thanks guys, only having one washer now also makes sense.

Re: Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Thanks for that, I had found that diagram, but the bushing are packed as a set of 4, so where do the other 2 go? I figure it must be in the hanger somehow, but my hanger on the inside (where the nut goes) is chamfered. Offering bits up, the bolt appears to be sized for the two parts of exhaust and t...

Fitting 4x4 Exhaust
Decided to reunite the A4 with its original exhaust, but am slightly puzzled on the order of bushes and washers onto the hanger. So, from the outside, can someone tell me how they all go together? As I cannot find a diagram showing where it all goes.

I think the clue is in the description:

Re: Aoshima 900 model kit, colour.?
Finally, lot more expense than I anticipated (sounds like a real one!), and a lot more time (also sounds familiar!)
How do you get images to display in a post?

Re: Aoshima 900 model kit, colour.?
Thanks all for your contributions, this 1:12 model is going to cost a fortune in paint! There was me thinking it'd be a low cost excecise.
