Title: Royal Enfield Model G - Side Stand
Post by: pratap on October 07, 2014, 02:45:23 PM

Hello, Can someone please help me with pics of a side stand for a 1947 Royal Enfield Model G. All bikes that I see are without these.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Good question. I always wondered if they ever had one. But looking at the manual there seems to be a side stand. Strange pattern and could never get a proper image.
Regards

The sidestand is a bit like the military type stands.
Its a long way back, and only really works on grass.

A poor pic of it here.
