Center Stand Spring
I purchased a center stand on eBay, since mine was missing, but it failed to come with the return spring. Is there a generic spring I can purchase from Home Depot? Can someone measure their center stand spring for me so I can find something similar? Thanks!

You will need a proper spring part from a used Kawasaki. That spring is massive. And you will have trouble bending a spring that strong so it will fit. If you can't find one on E BAY Pm me next month . I might have one.

In order to properly measure mine, I would have to dissemble it.
Even if you find one with similar dimensions, the spring factor may be stronger or weaker, probably giving you problems after installed. You could order it from RonAyers for around $10.

It just kills me to pay $8+ shipping for a $9 part (I know this might sound silly, considering I really do need the part). I guess I'll go to my local bike shop and see if they can get it.
