Photo shows the stand brackets on a GA7 prefix frame from January 1962.

Note the patch repair on the right side lower tube.

Looks like a previous owner chopped my mounts off …doubt they are an available part option probably have to make them .

 my  thoughts too.... removing the stand I can see but why the mounting lugs I dont see any grinding marks and there is still a bit of weld where they were maybe the welds broke at some point in time who knows ....thats why I couldnt figure out how the centre stand was mounted ....thanks for the pic
