Reynolds Center Stand

[jewels]

OK People I need your help.....Trying to install a Reynolds Center Stand on my 1984 R100/RS.
I understand the 2- 17mm bolts and bushings, but I have no clue on what the cresent circle type of brackets are or where they go? Also, there are 2 smaller pieces with 1 larger hole and 2 small ones in it??? Where do the springs attach and why is there 2 different designs on each? And oh ya where does the rubber bumper attach?

Could someone please take a picture of there Reynolds installation and post it or PM me with info of ANY kind.
I know I am asking alot, put I'm stumped.
Thanks

Marty, judging by the parts in your picture, that stand is for an earlier bike (1980 or earlier). Does it have two cross braces?

FWIW, the crescent brackets hook onto the frame cross brace that runs below the swing arm pivot. The oval pieces go on the stand's spring anchors, and thhe springs connect them.

Marty is there a model number stamped on the stand? My Reynolds catalog shows a #348 for our bike. My 81 RT has a 328 on it. I dont have any of the pieces that you posted.

I have 2 of them, one is a #320 Black with a 8.5" spacing between the ears and a double brac. The other one has no # on it with a 9" spacing between the ears, also double brace. Both my 1980 100T & my 84 r100/rs have a 8.5" spacing so I thought I could make atleast 1 of them work ? Any coments would be appreciated.
Thanks for the input all.

The 320 fits 74-80 EXCEPT the R65 models. I cant help with any measurements it all depends on your fame, height and other factors. Had to be a reason for so many different models

On the '81 on bikes, you'll seriously bend the frame tabs using a ride-off stand.

I have had one on mine for the last 90,000 with no problems.
