With the c/stand lifting arm now down it was the turn of the frame lifting arm/handle.
I have see people just using an 'L' shaped brk fitted between the rear seat fixing stud/bolt and the rear of the lifting arm but after a few lifts the brk starts to bend. So that is of no use and because the RGS uses different r/mudguard side rails which are of an all welded single rail instead of the two part assy of the Goldstar there is no rear anchor point for the lifting arm and I wanted to keep the original style RGS side rails.
Firstly I noticed that an additional inner rear mudguard brk, 42-6832, could be fitted on the inside under the seat mounting brk. When fitted it lined up perfectly with the rear fixing point of the frame lifting handle. However, that on its own would be too flimsy so a further fixing plate of some sort was required. I came up with 'boot' styled brk, see photos, that would locate on the the new inner rear mudguard brk, 42-6832, the top suspension bolt and by welding it to the inner face of the seat brk it gave three point fixing, which turned out to be more than adequate.
Since I only require one of the extended fixing lugs of the mudguard brk, 42 -6832, one was cut off as shown in the photos. The parts were assembled as shown and the brk welded to the inner face of the sear brk which was then sprayed.
Once assembled the three point fixing has been totally strong enough without any flex to take the frame lifting arm rear mounting without any problem.
And now when used with the c/stand lifting arm it's an absolute breeze to get the bike on the c/stand.
