its the headstock i need welding, i dont know where the sidestand question
came from?

[Davie]

the sidestand question came from me i am thinking about a accident damaged blade but the frame is cracked at the stand mount but i dont know if its part of the main frame or a bolt on part

ahhhhhhhh i thought you meant the sv. right, just had a look,the sidestand bolts onto a bracket but the bracket is bolted to the main frame (on my 97)

[anna]

if frame is cracked leave it alone.. it's a write off mate even if the side stand is bolted on at the stand mount the frame is an integral part of the bikes structure if it's cracked walk away.

[Davie]

i think i will just leave it well alone

When you find somebody to weld your bike disconnect the battery or you could damage the electrics
