Hi Gray
I bought a stand for my Husaberg from Prorace-Industries on eBay for £46.00 including all the bits n pieces and postage.
It’s very robust and I’m very pleased with it. A proper bargain.
They are Romanian based and are contactable through eBay, but don’t seem to have anything listed at the mo.

Already tried one of those Steve,but after a while they resort back to cheese again.I want one with the bolt on bracket.
It's looking like the trailtech one is better option.

Hi guys , if it was like mine on my 400 ktm it just kept laying further and further over , at first i thaught it was the bracket that was bending but on closer inspection part of the bracket were it ataches to the lower frame cross member had torn allowing the lean .The other thing is the side stand mounting also attaches the chain guide over the front of the swinging arm so have a good look at that as well if yours has developed the lean . My pivot bolt has also snapped as well but that is not so much of a big deal ,at least the leg is still in one piece .
I lead most of the rides my way on so i can pick and choose the gates i can open or close dependant on a suitable leaning spot for the bike ,I have been getting away with it for years .
Might be interested to know if the ones that clamp onto the swinging arm actually work out in the field or are only suitable to prop the bike up for a quick wash of etc .
when i am feeling brave i will braze mine on properly ,but too many trails to do at the moment .Good luck

I have a Trailtech on my 2006 EXC, great when it's working but the alloy pivot bolts do have a tendency to break!

I had to replace my first stand when the bolt bent and chewed up the (again aluminium) pivot bush inside the steel stand (the bush is not available separately), the bolt eventually snapped too.

Then I lost my new stand in Morocco when the replacement bolt snapped

And recently I bent the next replacement bolt too, luckily I had bought a spare as they are only about £2.50 (although postage is considerably more so only worth buying if your desperate or you're buying other goodies)

It's worn out and cracked.
That's the second one I have replaced.
