Kick Stand on Roketa Bali 250

[scooterg]

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to know if anyone else has had problems with the kick stand on the Bali 250? I went to kick the lever that returns the kick stand to the up position, and the thing came off. (not the kick stand, just that piece that you kick to raise or lower it). No big thing, just need to weld it back on a little better then they did.
I just thought I'd see if anyone else has been this happen.

Take care, and keep Scootin'

the kick stand..you may already know this but in case you dont remove the kick stand before welding on your bike..i done some mods on my Honda XR and the welder fried my coil. I guess you would say better safe then sorry.

Interesting! Probably just a poor weld. Checked the one on my Bali and it is solid as a rock. Good idea Ray has about removing it you use an electric welder. Shouldn't be a problem with acetylene.

Ray & Scooterollie,

Thanks for the good info., about removing the kickstand from the bike before welding. I was going to do that anyway, but it's good to get the info. out in case someone else has to do some welding on their bikes. Take care.......
