TWF kickstand pucks?

Did anything ever come of this? I know someone had brought it up and were looking into it. I wouldn't mind chipping in some money (hopefully some others would too) if Shan allowed us to use the logo or had some made and shipped to me so I could pass them out to everyone that came to the unofficial rally as sort of a little hey thank you for coming gift or even to sell them and give the money made to the site. Sell any extras on the site and all proceeds back to the site.

We're actually still looking in to this. In fact, we just were discussing it recently.

We're actually still looking in to this. In fact, we just were discussing it recently. Yeah I was just asking cause the rally is getting close, so the window is getting smaller. I recently had to pick one up too, because the CBR's kickstand is tiny on the bottom.

I've never heard of a kickstand puck. :scratch: What is it? :idk:

its usually a rubber pad that you put under the kickstand to give it a larger foot print and keep it from sliding.

its usually a rubber pad that you put under the kickstand to give it a larger foot print and keep it from sliding. :thx1: :hug:

its usually a rubber pad that you put under the kickstand to give it a larger foot print and keep it from sliding. Or in the really hot south and west, it will keep it from sinking into asphalt and tipping over.

Or in the really hot south and west, it will keep it from sinking into asphalt and tipping over. hence the larger footprint...:lol: great point...

Or in the really hot south and west, it will keep it from sinking into asphalt and tipping over. Not just the south, I've seen bikes on their side here in ND too, when their kick stands sank into the asphalt.:idk:

hence the larger footprint...:lol: great point... yes, but you said sliding, I have only used em for sinking issues.:lol:

These would be really cool :dthumb:

i'd be willing to buy some. :dthumb:

I've got a plastic one... it comes in handy sometimes.

Heck, I'd like to see TWF business cards... Though, I would totally rock the puck...

I hear you, bro-ski. So you said you had them before... Any idea of cost? I think with some of the talented mofo's we have around here we could get a cool design whipped together pretty quick...

So you said you had them before... Any idea of cost? I think with some of the talented mofo's we have around here we could get a cool design whipped together pretty quick... Actually that was before my time here...so I'm not sure of the cost. I'll look into it. I know we've discussed it in the past.

Yeah I didn't like it much... it's better than nothing though... I PIMP TWF!

I might see if I can get a local decal company to make me up one or two of my own design If I can make SUZUKI and SV650S stickers and not get in trouble, I don't see why not. You wouldn't be making a profit, the decal shop would be the one they could slap for infringement. :lol:

Somebody mentioned the kickstand puck in topic I posted. What exactly is it? :scratch:

Heck, I'd like to see TWF business cards... Though, I would totally rock the puck... We've had those in the past. I know cuz one was on my bike in Carlisle. :tt: I still have a big stack of them sitting here on my desk.

I still have a big stack of them sitting here on my desk. bring me one

1 month 2 weeks and a day. YEY!

1 month 2 weeks and a day. YEY! :rant: have fun though! I wanna see lots of pics! :tt:

:rant: have fun though! I wanna see lots of pics! :tt: :iagree:

Pics will have to be done by other people. I am going to be tied up shooting some vids of everyone. I am going to try and work to get a bunch of footage of everyone for like a TWF Rally video to help get it bigger for next year. Anyone want to edit it. :lol: Any word in the mod forums about the pucks yet marko since you are the only one responding to this thread.

We had actually come up with a logo and even an email sent to a company that made once...but wow that was a long time ago. I would still be in.

If anyone here knows of any feel free to post them here. Hopefully we can get this together soon.

OK,....:cheers:

We were and now again are looking into this. It honestly got forgotten about over winter. :damn:

We were and now again are looking into this. It honestly got forgotten about over winter. :damn: Just let me know if you want me to do this at the unofficial rally. I saw on that one website you could get about 250 for just over a $1 a piece. I would be willing to donate some money and I know others would too to get 250 as a test, so that we could hand them out as freebies as advertising. We would have to donate pretty quickly though to probably get them in time for the rally. I don't know how long these people take.

Shanman is more than open to getting the pucks....we just have to get some quotes and such. Which we are looking into now. Like I said...if anyone knows any places that do this stuff...post them up so we can look into them. :cheers:

Yes LINKS would greatly help!!!

Whatever happened to the place we originally found? Was an email ever sent? I thought I remembered something like Shan sent an email and they never got back. Watch out search button....here comes Fatimous!!!

Still waiting for a reply! :lol: I went back to the ebay link and it was now dead.

I just know of the one that was posted in the original thread. http://www.motorcyclecoaster.com/

I just know of the one that was posted in the original thread. http://www.motorcyclecoaster.com/ but... they look so...:gary:

but... they look so...:gary: I got a free one when i bought my bike... It's in the shape of a foot.

but... they look so...:gary: It's not suppose to be designer, it's just suppose to stop your bike from falling over and serve it's purpose. I use to use a piece of sheet metal I cut up. Although here where we ride bikes and not build them as show pieces, we prefer functional over pretty.

well id rather use a piece of scrap sheet metal over one those disks in the link any day. And i am about straight performance but that doesnt mean you have do make it look like ass to do it.

How does a very plain decagon look like a**. It isn't fancy at all and is just a simple shaped piece of plastic. That is why it is cheap, it's very plain and will let us who donate be able to advertise the site without spending a pile of cash. If you want something designed by Troy Lee, you fork out the cash for it.

If you want something designed by Troy Lee, you fork out the cash for it. Sure i guess the black ones dont look that bad. I wonder how long the print on the puck would stay in tack. Anyway its still a good find.:dthumb: Ive been looking for others myself thats the only place i could find.

I have quiet a few of those... they hold up great. The plastic makes them real light weight. There was a ebay link for a guy about 45 mins from my house. In like highland, MI. I need to find him but I have just been too busy to hit up ebay.

Ok. I actually have a big stack in my adidas bag still too, so I won't forget when I come down for the rally. Just got them today, thanks!!!:cheers:

I made two of them at work a couple of weeks ago, I'll try and post up some pics. If not ImpalaBalko may be able to, he has one of them. We used 1/8" aluminum

heres mine, http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s128/glavini/kickstandplate.jpg ImpalaBalkos is a flame

^^ Cool, but where do you carry it? Looks too big to keep under cowl/seat? :idk:

It's small enough to keep under the seat/cowl. Maybe its the way I took the picture

Yeah I would never carry something like that. That would be like for a show or somin.

Yeah I would never carry something like that. That would be like for a show or somin. that's cause you don't have a cowl to put it under... :wink:

Yeah I would never carry something like that. That would be like for a show or somin. :iagree: I'm looking for something simple.

This was just something I did real quick on the router, I had some extra space to use up. I don't use it all the time. On the other hand what are the others made of? I have plenty of PVC here at work. I could use that to make something. Light weight and if it gets lost or stolen it ain't a big deal.

does anybody else just keep a little man with them in the summer to hold your bike up for you or am i the only one?

You keep a man in your pocket NTS? I don't know about you man! :gary:

You keep a man in your pocket NTS? I don't know about you man! :gary: "oh I got you good you f_cker!!!" Name that movie.

Back on topic.... Any decision as of yet about the pucks?

Its a matter of finding the "right company"
