Ricochet CR500 Kickstand (1987-2001)
This is a solid kickstand built from 4130 chromoly steel shaft paired with a heat-treated T1 carbon steel bracket. You get a high-tension spring that won't wear out from constant bike vibrations and normal riding. The whole thing weighs just 1.5 lbs and bolts up in about five minutes.
What You're Getting
- 4130 chromoly steel shaft for real strength
- Heat-treated T1 carbon steel bracket — roughly 10 times tougher than mild steel
- High-tension spring that resists fatigue from vibration and use
How It Works
The kickstand clamps tight around your swing-arm so it won't slip or rattle. It sits up and back while you're riding, so it won't catch on anything or hang down where it shouldn't. When you park, it's there to hold the bike solid.
Material & Durability
Chromoly is the real deal — it's what they use in aerospace because it handles stress and impacts without breaking or bending like cheaper aluminum does. Your CR500 gets a kickstand that'll take years of hard riding without failing, and it won't feel flimsy or move around when you're stopped on uneven ground.
Finish Options
You can add a custom powder coat that matches OEM colors if you want. That adds a week or two to shipping, but it gives you a durable finish that blends right in with your bike.
