\"\" The GPZ900R somehow feels nostalgic. I’ve noticed it’s been on a declining trend lately, yet the sales numbers were never small to begin with.<\/p>\n

So this time we have an inspection, Deco-mainte, and some repair and replacement work requested.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAround this area<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nGood thing the case wasn’t cracked.<\/p>\n

This time we’re also installing sliders.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"
\nSince it’s just a replacement, I’ll skip the details.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIt’s 17 inches, so we’re using a 17-inch sidestand, but it stands up incredibly high. It’s getting into scary territory.<\/p>\n

If the standard is okay, we’d like to replace it.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIf we go with standard, it contacts the chain. What to do\u2026<\/p>\n

Even with a stopper modification on the standard, I don’t like the spindly-legged stand look (personal preference)
\nAftermarket stands have that typical solid, heavy construction, but the shape is stylish (personal preference)
\nWe decided that modifying the aftermarket stand would be better.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nRough angle check\u2014first the aftermarket 17-inch<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n18-inch standard<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThis is the final form, but the process goes: cut \u2192 attach \u2192 check \u2192 cut \u2192 attach \u2192 check \u2192 cut \u2192 attach \u2192 check.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nAfter that we did some spot welding and that’s about it\u2014short and sweet.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAbout 15 degrees. A safe angle now.<\/p>\n
