I thought of you when I saw those 125 pistons on the web site! I have extended and shortened vee twin centre stands in my time, but being tubular, they were pretty easy, but the early singles stands, built out of angular steel, would not be such a simple job. It could be done though, by a decent metal worker - like a blacksmith.
Colin thanks for reply. I saw pistons on website but not the size I wanted. It was only after contacting Barry that i found that he had a 56.2 piston.
The 125 centre stand is tubular that is what appealed to me. Thinking that I only need to increase length by 1/2" (12 mm) might be able to add 1/2" (12 mm) to bottom tubes to add wear strip. What do you think? Not over keen on the 175 stands. There are some Italian copies for sale. Barry bought one but was not impressed with overall finish.
