Default New spring for side stand

My side stand is terribly stiff and I'm putting that down to the fact that

A) It needs a good greasing
B) The spring is rusty as fook and just looks old and rubbish.


Anyone got a spare, nice and clean looking one?

Cba to clean it so want a new one. Is that too much to ask?
Do you really have to come on here and start telling me what I should do?
I'd rather you didn't comment at all.

New one will go manky v quickly just cos of whats its made from and the coating on it.

Just clean the pivot bolt and grease it, then all should be better

And............................................... .................................. Relax

ooh -chip a nail did you wee man??

i'd rather you got off your ar$e and cleaned your spring instead of being a lazy wee toad-if you post on a public forum jnr expect some replies that you might not want or like-your attitude to sorting an easy fix on your bike speaks volumes about you-if we meet up in the future i'll be interested to see if your as bolshi in person as you are on a keyboard-maybe you do have big balls, but i doubt it

He's placed a post in the Wanted section for a side stand spring, he didn't ask for advice on how to loosen it up if you don't have one to sell or an idea of where to get one from why post anything.
