Not sure about Steves method..... try this one.


Put the spring in a vice, open it by moving side to side, as the gaps appear place a coin in the gap, then move the spring over to the other side until a gap is formed, then same again. Keep going until the spring is long enough to fit.

Once the spring is on the bike, put the sidestand down and most of the coins will fall out, the rest just take out with pliers. Simple, safe and no potential airborne missiles!!
