Spring for Kickstand...

Post by KrautV8 »

I need a new spring for my kickstand. Found a couple in Ebay for different Harley model years....37-90, 85-06, 85-90, 99-06 and so on....

They are cheap, but I don't know what spring is the right one for our Boss Hoss Kickstand.

Does someone know??

Thanks,
Olaf

I lost mine last week. Went to the hardware store and bought a 2 pack of springs for a few bucks. Works perfectly and I have a spare

I lost one in a turn once when I hit a bump. It flattened the hole in the stand so a stock spring wouldn`t fit anymore anyway. We stopped at a hardware store and I bought a spring off the shelf and it worked perfect as Carl said.
