Front near side engine bolt

[Northern Monkey]

Can anyone advise on what should be here? It looks too long for just a nut and washer, I've looked on realoem.com for a diagram and cannot find a picture with the bolts for the engine ( granted I may be being blonde!)

And also how many springs should the centre stand have? And are they both the same length if they need two??

Cheers

washer and nut.

is the bolt free to turn in the crankcase?

 

[Northern Monkey]

Yes it just slid in all the way through - there's a nut and washer on the other side

Seems fine to me - just a nut and washer, and centralise the bolt so there is the same sticking out either side. They do show a bit more thread than you might expect, but done so as to allow crash bars to be fitted (its on of the mounting point's).

Cant help with the springs tho...

 

[Northern Monkey]

Perfect thanks - it does have crash bars so that'll explain it thanks

You putting your side stand on before doing that nut up?

Ha! Cunning plan, I've binned the original and got a proper locking out one that's fitted to the foot peg but good spot, keeping you on yer toes

I've found a second spring in bottom of a box fits the centre stand - so the answer is yes , 2 springs on the centre stand
