I have a question about my 1991 FLHS restore project. Where can I find Harley instructions for mounting a center display jiffy stand? I believe the Harley part number is 99002-88C and is no longer made. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. 1990 FLHS here, complete with display stand! I installed it myself a long time ago, having owned the bike from new. I recall it was a bit of a b1tch to get right, so haven't disturbed it since! I'm not sure I still have the instructions, as I don't recall they were much help. The number you mention, with a C suffix, is the third and last version, although that may simply mean they were made by a different supplier.
This link may help. Any queries do ask, I'll try to help.
What I found is that the four mounting brackets on mine (bought new) were not perfectly aligned, relative to each other, nor would they respond to a firm biff with a heavy mallet, to make them straighter. This is a seriously strong assembly, as we might expect with up to half a ton sitting on it. I ended up playing with some penny washers to get things as good as possible. Took some fiddling around at the time, but it's been working fine for many years now and I remain very happy with it.
It has prompted a lot of interest over the years, from other owners who didn't know such a thing was available. I reckon it is superior to the centre-stand type, although it doesn't aid removing either wheel, other than to assist in putting a lift under the bike. Helps in all other servicing, cleaning etc.
