I ordered this sidestand pad on ebay, I know from experience it was unlikely to fit but for 15 bucks I took a chance. Well as I thought it is to small but I think it might fit a 21 or 22 model? Very well made item from the look of it, Anybody want it? Send me a address to ship to and I'll send it out to the conus only please. Thanks

I’m noting a few improvements from the ‘22 model. I mean, they did change to a new engine! But, on a more serious note, the footpad on the side stand was quite notable. I saw the long gear shift shaft from the ‘22 and ordered an aftermarket support bracket only to find that the case for the ‘23 extends out about an inch further than the ‘22, and the shift lever itself covers about an inch of shaft as well (also different from ‘22, I think) I found the bracket I ordered might still fit… but would take up all the room left on the shaft. (between the case extension and the shift lever). In short, I think the “long shift shaft” was addressed as well for the ‘23.
Not noting an “improvement” but an obvious change, the speed sensor from the ‘21-22 models was a 3-wire part. I ordered a “corrector” (changing the front sprocket has seen ABS lights…) from 12 O’clock Labs and found the speed sensor for the ‘23 was a 2-wire.
Short story is; wanted to put a 13-tooth sprocket on my ‘23 but heard ‘21-22 had possible ABS light issues when fitted. When I ordered the “corrector”, found they were told the ‘23 was the same as ‘22. It was not. I’m working with them currently to get stuff sorted.

Same thing happened to me with a similarly priced kickstand extender I bought on Amazon and had to return. It didn’t look quite right but the item description swore up and down that it would fit the 2023 model so I took a gamble. Oh well!

Here's a pic bigcanoe sent of it mounted, seems very well made and worth the money. Recommend for 21 and 22 models.

I put a 13 tooth front sprocket on my JA65, (stock tires at the moment), and immediately started getting hammered with that ABS light... very annoying. I reached out to 12OclockLabs as well. Hoping they can fix me up. If not, I'm going back to the 14, and will increase the rear sprocket from a 38 to 40... that might even be a slightly better ratio... but I have the 13 on, and either way I would need to adjust the speed/odo.
