DIY guide for mounting a center stand?

Anyone have the Center stand Installation manual they could e-mail me,

I would really appreciate it.

Thanks Chris for the Manual

I have taken off the Center stand springs on a few Goldwing's and other bikes,

To get them back on I hook one end of the spring on, then I usually use a a Long screw driver, i put the screw driver under the other end of the spring, and rest the screw driver tip on the place the spring is to go(that is usually a Bolt tip or frame bolt tab), then pull the screw driver toward me, and up and on to the spring Mount, and the spring usually goes into place first time.

But, It looks like the exhaust pipe is in the way for my favorite heavy spring installation method to work

A Ratchet strap tied to the spokes on the back wheel and the hook end hooked through the springs worked for me. I Just ratcheted the strap, until the springs were pulled enough to pop onto the centerstand, and released the ratchet strap.... piece of cake!
