Considering how little else changed, I'd expect it to be identical. However I don't know this for a fact.

 

I had also seen the kickstand on ebay. It's an ok price; compared to what a junkyard or dealer would sell it to you for. It will fit.

As far as the quality, the kickstand on my '98 steed is the one thing that
I am nervous about. big *** bike with a toothpick of a kickstand. the thing
flexes like you wouldn't believe. I am thinking about getting a kickstand from a Suzuki SV and making it work. What do you think?

 

Holy ****! The kickstand always seemed okay to me. But after dealing with the infamous Duc spring-loaded stand, anything seems good. It bends? I better check this out.

 

Speaking of kick-stands, why the hell is my clutch slave cylinder leaking after only 20k? I bled, it's clean, but it's started leaking, at the slave. K&L Supply for a re-build kit? Clean it out?

 

check around on other hondas for pivot/spring details and length because on flebay you can pick up neat new aluminum sidestands (and brake & shift levers) for cheap. I've thought about getting one just to paly with if someone finds a close match.

 

Don't feel bad, mine is bent too...

Would love to know what you figure out about it tho.
