Here is my bench mounted engine stand. it is made from a piece of 1/2" plate and some old yamaha engine mounts. it pivots on a 5/8" bolt, so it can be locked off in any position.. I found plans to build an engine stand, but they were hardly legible. i redrew them and changed two things; 1) added an inch to the height for clearance with the starter still installed and 2) changed the hole size to a proper one. both suggestions came from this thread. i am posting a small jpg and a link to the pdf version for clear printing.. Well i made this cost was 97 cents. its two bars off a carpet sample display rack and the stock engine mounts. yup im a tightwad, but it works good and can be slide around..
We pull the motor, flip it up on one end of the handles, and stick the stand on the bottom. with the tc bros. stand, the front handle must come off which means rolling the motor around on the ground to get the stand on, and it's a struggle because of the poor fit. that's real good for the alloy cases and the engine fins, lol. if you like it. Tc bros. yamaha xs650 engine rebuild stand. make your engine rebuild a lot easier with this engine stand. very rigid and easily secured to your work bench using 1/4in holes found in base of stand. powdercoated gloss black for a durable finish. fits all years of xs650 motors. made in usa. assembled dimensions are 10.25in w x 13.5in l x 11in h..
