I recently bought a moped and upgraded the exhaust on it to a performance exhaust. I had to take the kickstand off to use the exhaust, though. I bought a regular bicycle kickstand at Wal-Mart and was wondering how exactly JB Weld works. I've never cold-welded before (or arc-welded for that matter). I can't find any clever way to mount it up to the bike without welding it on.
I have a buddy with an arc-welder so I might just hit him up. Do you guys think JB Weld would work? One of the surfaces is a round beam about 1/2" in diameter that connects the footpegs together, and the other surface is the kickstand mounting plate. I think the kickstand is aluminum, but I'm not sure. No idea what the metal is connecting the footpegs. Its a 1983 bike, so I was thinking just steel.
