Was thinking the same, check.
I'd thought about fabbing up an extra tab onto the stand mount that might bolt to a boss welded to the muffler. Still tossing it around...
Thank you!
Just got a '06 XB12X with a wobbly stand. Before I could look into it more, down it went. A previous owner had Helicoiled the Case holes with the short version and what looks like 3/4" bolts. ...
