Wobbly 1200GSA side stand

[johnthegrinch]

The side stand on my 2006 GSA is wobbling on the pivot. I bought a new pivot bolt but the wear seems to be on the sleeve(s?) that goes between the bolt and the frame lug and the new bolt does not improve the problem. Has anyone changed the sleeves? If so, how - I can't get the worn one to come out.

I had the same problem with mine, I made up a new pivot pin myself but it did not cure the wobble until i made washers out of shim to eliminate the side play.

worn bush

yep mine went all wobbly as well.solution is to get old knackered bush out and replace! sounds good but sometimes they`ve worn themselfs a lip and need to be gentle taped out, i then decided to turn my own so when it went again i could only complian to me. P.S. motorworks do some bush`s dont kno if gs and gsa are same tho
