As
mentioned earlier, the
foot-pegs were change for styled pegs that better suited the new 900's
image and Alejandro de Tomaso's concept design. The fact that they fold
up proved to be an advantage. |
Benelli positioned the side stand well
forward of the left-hand-side of the lower frame rail, right under the
engines out-hang. With the addition of the new crash-bars, it makes folding
the stand up with ones boot, diffcult. Folding the peg up eases the
stretch... a little. |
Alan would have repositioned the stand
further back if he had ever ridden the bike prior to the bikes major
rebuild. |
