Cos my mate Tony has been up and put the Puck on for me! :dancebanana:

He brought some other stuff with him as well......I think he called them "Tools?"

Anyway.....the job is done! Big lump of rubber at the bottom of the stand and it seems to do the job. ?

It leans to far over, plus stops it sinking in the ground when parked on the grass.?

Looks odd with those bolts sticking out though.

Yeah it’s not to bad when you paint it black to match the stand.?

I've got to spray the heads of the screws on mine to blend it in more.

There's a sort of smudge on the rubber, but I'm hoping a few coats will cover it.

it's still bad form though Pete that you are having to do that, B M should have put a longer stand on in the first place ?

One of it's selling points was that it was marketed towards shorter people.

Well I'm very happy with the Puck!

I forgot it was on and when I put the bike on the sidestand I thought there must be a stone underneath, because it didn't drop as low it was.

So it took a bit of getting used to.....and the rubber really grips the road so there's no sidestand slip whatsoever.

Plus it don't look wonky now.
