Center stand screw

nice price, need 2 new of them now.

at my 821 removing centerstand was no problem, the screws were no problem to unsrew.

next weekend i am on a 2 days trackday and so i wanted to unmount the centerstand of my new 939. wow, that was heavy and i had to use all tricks.
screws did not move a mm, hexagonsocket nearly ruined of the first one with electric impact wrench. no chance. then with heatgun and it opened slowly under lot of power.
so at the second one i used heatgun instantly, but no chance, ruined hexagonsocket.
then i hammered a larger torx into it and togehter with heat i could open it.
all 2 threads had a lot of red on it, actually the thread was completly red.
The new screws will never get loose by its own ;-).

good luck if you want to unmount your centerstand for any reason.

I will buy new ones and use them with light/blue loctite or without, the red one is a torture.
