Members: I am looking for a center stand that fits a Camel500 from 1981thru 1983. I know they are rare as hens teeth. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Camel500 centerstand
Sorry, but as you've found they are almost impossible to find. It seems the only way is to copy someone else's bike to get one made. The original is quite simple and lightweight construction. If you can do, or get done welding cutting and bending of steel it should be easy enough. I've just remembered there was a fellow in Italy who made batches of them. I think a bit stronger too, but sadly I can't remember the name!
I'm not aware of anyone making panels at the moment but the last ones I heard of were made by a firm called 'Sforza Racing in Lincolnshire UK. I think he may have closed but try googling that name maybe?

Angelo: Thank you for responding with the photo. If you can post me measurements of the stand. I would need total length of the legs, width of mounting bracket, length of leg from bottom of foot pad up to bend. Also size of center-stand bolt including length. Sorry for all the questions.
