Can anyone tell me if there is anywhere that makes stronger centre stand springs bmw r100gs. I have lengthened the centre stand and have a touratech guard on it. The springs don't retract it all the way now with tension and its going to bounce around terribly if I use it off road.
Cheers 👍
 
Had the same issue on the special I built with a longer centre stand. I never got it sorted and when I used the bike off-road I ziptied the centre stand up to stop it flapping about and just used the side stand

I've actually added one of the Rubber bands they use for the side stand on the ktms. It holds it quite tight and to be honest I only really use the side stand when out and about.
I tried doubling up with a smaller spring inside the other one but it just stretched it and worked once 🙄
