Length centre to bottom = 10”
width centre to centre = 9 3/4”
Cannot do fitted length as it’s not fitted and bike is on the ramp sans forks right now…

la larghezza attacco alla gabbia cambio è diversa tra i modelli fino al 1971 e successivamente che è maggiore.

Depending on where you fit the stop blocks (the lumps that bear against the cradle) The original stands have a hole in the vertical (what the stop block is welded to) and the block welded to the vertical through that hole and then welded at the two sides away from the cradle. you cannot see this hole as it is behind where the legs are welded to the vertical. I found this out when trying to move the stop block to get the r/wheel off the ground, ground all the visible welds off and the stop block still firmly attached..... Ended up adding weld to the block to alter the stands stance

My 850 with same tyre and rim is barely off the ground. Original stand.

Mine was too until I replaced the pivots. Even with good pivots I've seen them from touching the ground to 2" clearance. I have Combat right now that Is touching the ground with good pivots so I either need to build up the stops or cradle.
I really need to figure out what the optimum stand angle when sitting on the stand. Leaning too far forward lets the rear wheel touch and too straight up gives a lot of clearance but makes the bike unstable on the stand.
