Title: Centre Stand ram repair Post by: ronoc88 on September 05, 2022, 23:16:28 The x9 evo Centre stand ram is leaking oil and is no longer working. No big deal except its ruining the driveway...
Local piaggio dealer quoting 687euro fit replacement ram and motor. ::lol:: Is the ram take-apartable for seals etc?

If it's just the gasket or even the pump filler screw that's leaking then should be fixable with some gasket sealant. It's got a big spring inside it that returns the plunger so be careful. They appear on Ebay regularly and leaks are not common.

I think it's the leg itself thats getting thin. I might get a 500SL one and weld my footbar to it on the bench then swap it over.
