Re: R1 sidestand upgrade
My pivot block is showing signs of wear, this exagerates the lean angle, so I'll be replacing the lot.
Quick measure this morning shows the R1 stand is 20mm longer than the original TRX one for reference.

Re: R1 sidestand upgrade
The stand is a perefect fit and has made all the difference to my bike's lean angle.
Good call guys.
I changed the mounting as well as the stand itself, just used the original switch to avoid any rewiring work.
Perfick!

Re: R1 sidestand upgrade
My original TRX stand is 250mm from the toe (front edge) of the foot to the centre of the pivot.
The R1 stand I've fitted is just 15mm longer but makes a big difference, particularly when my stop block was pretty worn and making the bike lean over too far on the side stand.
Hope this gives you the information you need
