    The only bolt that will fix it so it doesn't fall out again is Whitworth, and you'll need a left handed monkey wrench.

    That was supposed to be a kick stand? I must have installed it upside down to smooth my belt vibration.

    Same thing happened to me. I replaced it with a self sealing stem bolt with a thin coating of prop wash and a small bit of flight line on it.
    Haven't had a problem since.

    I always wanted to put one on my sidecar and just not say anything about it (also put a crushed beer can under it's foot). I thought it would to be funny to see if anyone noticed.

    That's hat happens when you don't connect your knicker pin to your wabblenbacker! It happened tome to me also . It's not really Rocket science.

    BTW, I needed a sky hook to pick mine up. They're heavy!

    Three years and still a good one.

    And, I wont do one this year. I had a lot fooled a few years back when I printed and announced information about the NEW electric powered Spyder.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.
