P11 Side Stands

Ron and p400,
Are legs of your stands solid or hollow? I believe most reproductions are solid. I got mine fron Norvil and it's too heavy in my opinion.

The prop stand legs are solid cast steel with the foot being a separate casting with a hollow in the center. The foot is welded or brazed to the leg. Many of the reproductions have the leg and foot cast as one solid part.

p400,

Norvil p/n 067719A and pictured at their site. It's probably the 6.2" version. Sorry, I can't tell you the weight as the stand is buried somewhere in my stash.

It looks like Andover has just released a new Featherbed/P11A sidestand.
Anyone try it yet?

Anyone try fitting the above stand yet? How is it working out?

Looks too short, and if it is related to featherbed, not good.
The construction of a non tapering leg shaft looks good.

I just noticed the part number 18750 is for a 650SS, again, not good for P11.

I haven't tried it. AN tells me the length is approx. 195mm from flat foot to pivot hole. After some creative photographic assesments I derived at an equivalent length of the orinal stand: (A) + footing = 6.5" + 41 mm = 206 mm.
Thus, this stand is definately too short for a P11/P11A. The footing also seems unsuitable for parking outside the tarmac. P11A Ranger and P11 Ranger didn't have this kind of footing, did they?
