I had a friend weld me some cups with off angle flat plate bottoms.
I slipped them on and let them self align them to flat ground.
Then lifted the bike a bit, marked, drilled and bolted then in place.
I like the project. I think this shows that we should all have friends with some welding experience and equipment at the ready.
Can you elaborate on the type of bike this is? Also, with this type of kick stand, what prompted you to add the welded end cap? Did it originally have a plastic end cap?
We got our selves a 10k+ mile Bullitt. It’s seen so many sets of tires and pads…
The rubber wore off, replacements were pricy, rubber caps from Amazon wore through in a week, aluminum started to wear to the point it would wobble from not being lifted to needing these feet…
