For a Yamaha SR125.

Can I find one anywhere? Can I buggery.

Does it need to be the exact one, or will a spring from another model / make fit (or be bodged to fit)?

Don't want to risk the thing dropping down as I'm riding along, but it's just a spring, can't be that comlex surely?

You can buggery all you like but stay the hell away from my kids. Laughing

Fold the stand all the way up, measure the distance between the pins, buy a spring that is at least 10mm shorter.
