Hi Trevor and All,
Here is a stand
repair confession
When I got my SR rolling frame c1990 and was more ignorant than I hope I am now about welding and the like
The stand pivot points on both frame and stand were well and truly knackered
The only welding apparatus to hand was an AC electric plant
I ran beads of weld around the outside of the worn stand eyes and beat them inwards while red hot in order to reduce the hole diameter
and so on until there was enough metal built up to "look right"
I welded up and filed the frame mounting holes "round",
I got a piece of 3/4in mild steel bar and drilled it through 1/2in. faced off the ends so it would fit between the frame
mounts and arc welded it in place, drilled and tapped the centre of it for a grease nipple
I turned up a suitable stainless bolt and made the pivot pin
The SR has now been on the road over 16 years and the stand at least has not received any further attention
Did I just get lucky
John
