Hey Again Guyz,
Today I have to install a new spring on the kickstand which is a job I have never done so thought I would ask for help. I have tried stretching the spring with a clamp but very difficult to get it onto the static point under the bike and at the top of the kickstand mounting bolt. Anyone knows how this can be done or if there is a tool please let me know. Thanks much
 
I use a T-handled spring puller, available from eBay for less than $10 ......

Hook the rotating end of the spring to the bolt-on post at the top and stretch it down to the hook on the stand .....
