T7 Camel Toe Side Stand Install

The Camel Toe Side Stand for the 700 Tenere is a direct replacement for the factory cast aluminum stand.
Do you climb on your bike while the side stand is down? Go for it.
Use your bike's side stand to break the bead on your friend's flat tire, no problem! Lowered your bike and need a shorter kickstand? We have you covered!
Our side stand uses a steel CNC machined mounting lug that's TIG welded to heavy wall DOM tubing. At the base is a large camel foot that is almost twice the size of the stock pad. No need for a foot enlarger here! Each side stand is powder-coated to ensure durability and a great look.
Available in 3 lengths:
-Standard length
-Lowered
-Extended
The side stand comes with a new spring to replace the OEM unit that is barely strong enough to keep the stock kickstand up in rough terrain. Due to the much larger size of the spring, the tin side stand safety switch plate will not be reused! We have a more robust version in the works.
All extra fees such as taxes, duties, tariffs, brokerage, etc are not included in the purchase price. Customers are wholly responsible for payment of these fees!
MOTORCYCLE NOT INCLUDED (Yup, apparently this footnote is required, we've had questions)z

This has to be the best product name in all of history.

[@CamelADV]

Glad you like it!

[@AutoDIY]

I just installed your short stand on my lowered T7 and I love it. I am so much more confident about walking away from it now, before a stiff wind could have knocked it over. The large camel foot sits flat and secure and is adorable. BTW, I also appreciated the kind thank you on the shipping box. Camel ADV you're killing it!

[@CamelADV]

I'm happy to hear you're happy with your Camel Toe! Thanks for the kind words.

[@grantgraham5828]

I don't have a T7 ( I own a 2020 KTM 790 Adv R) but I almost always learn something new from these install video's. Thanks!!

[@jacbosmitt]

Great how to video as always! ... For those that are reinstalling the kickstand switch and guard without bypassing or relocating, be careful tightening the 10mm bolt that threads into the kickstand pivot bolt. It snapped very easily on my bike when i was just trying to snug it up

[@ripnriding1]

Took me a taad longer to install. Had to remove the Center stand (which I wanted to do anyways) to access the 10 mm Allen on rear. Bypassed the switch while at it ;). Very happy with the quality of the stand man!

[@wayde4192]

Perfect- when sorted out with a buddy who also wants one an order is on the way .

[@LookattheBiggerPic]

Nice Cory, these look really good - will do some fully loaded measurements with 230mm travel suspension and then order the correct size from you! - Much thanks for all you do!

Got one on my AT very happy with it

...camel....toe I love it

[@SM-yq9ig]

Did he say camel toe? Side stand? 🤭🤣

[@RandyMcCotter]

Nice... I may have to invest in one. Just placed an order tonight for pegs and a bar riser for my AT. You should make a lockable tool box that’ll mount inside SW Motech pannier racks... I know a couple guys that would be interested

[@troyboy3378]

Fantastic.. gotta say though ..25mm lowering links and sw motek centre stand with b&b bash plate installed first .. was so hard on the 10mm inhex for access .. great stand ..

[@CamelADV]

Those allen head bolts are a hassle to get at even in stock form!

[@downbytheriver501]

Is the side stand supposed to have play in it or did I miss something on install? A large part of me would be grateful if you said it is because that spring…oh man.

[@gordonborsboom7460]

I believe heating bolts with red Loctite will soften the strength of the treadlocker. This is not to mean red hot however.

[@CamelADV]

Yes, heat helps but the bracket it's threaded into is aluminum so anything more than an electric heat gun can cause issues.

[@Kingsmanly]

Hi, when I put the 10mm switch bolt back in and tightened it up, the bolt snapped in half in the hole with very little force. Anyone else had this issue? No idea what to do now.

[@jacbosmitt]

Mine did the same. It feels like it is still held in securely by the thin metal guard so I am going to leave it now. If it causes future issues I will probably just bypass it. Have you found a solution for yours? You can order replacement bolts from RMATV for about 35 USD

[@xavierzave8452]

Do you have a good source for ss bolts screws in Canada?

[@CamelADV]

Blackfoot Industrial Supply is who we use. I believe you're west coast though(?). There should be countless well stock suppliers in the lower mainland.

[@robertlynn2720]

Does the stand have a small bit if lateral play? Before spring is on?

[@downbytheriver501]

That’s what I’m wondering. Just installed mine and deleted the kill switch on the kickstand and it appears to have some play

[@alrightdave6135]

Will it work with a centre stand. Cheers

[@CamelADV]

It is.

[@Bob-xy6gt]

Curious if you’ve ever tried this or heard of anyone doing this with the OEM center stand installed, theres almost no clearance to the bolt which makes it impossible to get enough leverage to break. Completely stuck and dreading the thought of having to remove the center stand to do this

[@mpwicks]

+1, same question here

[@Bob-xy6gt]

@@mpwicks Oh oddly enough I'm in the process of doing this right now. I'm doing this while the bike is on the center stand and had to remove a bolt from the center stand hinge to make room. It's a bit annoying, but definitely possible.

[@mpwicks]

@@Bob-xy6gt I just did mine as well! I ended up pulling the center stand itself off and removing enough bolts on the clutch side bracket that I could rotate it out of the way of the 10mm hex head bolts. This wasn’t easy in my case because one of the bolts in the clutch side center stand bracket feels like it was welded in! I ratchet strapped bike to a couple of mounting points in the garage and pushed the front wheel against a wall to keep it upright. Anyway it’s done, thankfully. Glad you had success too!

[@lessmore444]

Near impossible to intentionally roll that socket down the drain, by accident, highly likely.

[@CamelADV]

Exactly.

[@JG__12]

Just wondering. Why does the spring need to be beefier?

[@xtina818]

Going over bumpy ground or jumps the side stand can spring down and cut out the motor. Stronger spring stops it from doing that. My drz would do this and cut my motor on whoops

[@CamelADV]

The stock spring is barely enough for the stock side stand. As mentioned by Xt, if the side stand bounces down over rough terrain, it'll trigger the side stand switch and kill the motor... less than ideal.

[@robertlynn2720]

Delete the sidestand switch = disregard the spring issue, right?

[@CamelADV]

Yes.

[@lessmore444]

Discreetly relocated my side stand switch to serve as a budget anti theft imobilizer before it got toasted. It’s“guard” was already suffering.

[@downbytheriver501]

@@lessmore444same thing I have done 😉

[@andrewsoldan6050]

nice, didn't know factory one breaks. Everything is cheap these days.

[@jayhopkins1337]

Are you serious? Buy a add on plate 8.99$ to bottom of kickstand adds over quarter Inch. Then go to hardware store get heavy spring 5.99$ done easy under 10 minutes

[@MightyJustas]

3:38 i have put some loctite on that bolt while screwing it in. And it fucking broke in half 😭
