Normally the sidecar is easily detachable, so you still need the stands for when you don't use the sidecar. Also many sidecars are attached via a cv-joint style attachement and thus allowing a certain lean of the Bike for cornering.

The Kit has the side-stand bracket included and I am supposed to install it sans sidestand, which to me eye looks and feels weird.

Parts help needed!

I need some help collecting some info so that I can order a part for a Kit.

I recently got myself the 1/6 Tamiya Harley FLH Classic with Sidecar, when to my horror I discovered that the kit lacks the side-stand and also is supposed to be build without mainstand. Banged Head [banghead]Banged Head [banghead]Banged Head [banghead]

Now there is a mainstand on the sprue that I think i will use(instruction sez to forget it), plus I would like to order the metal(methinks) sidestand.

Unfortunately i don't have instructions for any of their other Harley Kits anymore, so if anyone can tell me the kit and part number for the sidestand it would be greatly appreciated.

I would also appreciate a scan of the mainstand installation step, just the one panel will be fine.

Thanks in advance for any help/advise.
