Hi everyone,
As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.
When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.
Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.
Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.
Thanks for your patience and support!

The problem to me is this:
http://www.cafehusky.com/attachments/sany5089-jpg.67041/
When the stand goes too up, then the foot will touch the swingarm (I can see the scratches also in your first pic...
...I suposee now you have no problem because you have bended the stand)
I don't want to bend the stand. At the beggining my "solution" works fine, but some months later due to the wearing of the iron piece, the stands again goes to high... may be I'm going to have to replace that piece from time to time

I'm afraid you didn't understand my question. I wanted to know... if you finally has had to bend the stand is because your "first solution" didn't work as good as you wanted
. That's why I asked you what was wrong (what didn't work as you expected) Thank you

Now I understand you wanted to say.
my main problem when I made the change with the stainless steel thickness was that the bike fell easily on the ground when I was posting it.
later to improve the support I bent out the side stand.
then:
with the stainless steel thickness it is avoided that the stand sticks on the swingarm because it goes too high.
with bending outwards the bike is' more stable when standing.
I hope I have explained it well
if it can be useful I can put other detail pictures

This is what I'm looking for.
As my side stand is larger than the OEM one (it is from the TE450... but shortened some centimeters) the bike is OK when is on it. So I have to make only "half steel piece" like the one I did due I don't have issues when the bike is on the side stand.
So I'm going to take a closer look to the piece I made in order to find a solution

Yes. Although I think does not fit fine the TE630 rear rim. In fact it was not easy to install it.
Sorry, not ignoring you! The stand came with the bike. The PO said it was already on when he bought it, so I am now awaiting an answer from the original owner and will advise when I know.
