Nope never bought that repo, but it is a very reasonably priced one.
Been tracking sidestands for some years now they were often seen at $300.00+ for originals.
Often without all the important pieces like the mount bracket this repo does possess.
You might try to shift through his feedback and see if any complaints after install.

Well the sidestand has arrived and tried to fit it (note I said tried to fit) so here is my verdict on the Ebay Sidestand out of ten score.

Delivery 10

Cost 7

Packaging 9

Finish 6

Fit 3 (the bracket is at the wrong angle)

Would I recommend NO wait for the real thing only purchase if you must have one and the real item is not avaIlable.

I have a idea to make it fit then I will paint it black.
