Actually mine is too short.....the kickstand I mean. I have the Dunlop 606 on it, and sometimes it feels like the bike is going to tip over because of the lean. In the garage I keep the kick stand on this...

 

Dunno. Most of the '67 Ponchos were pretty low-slung. The Bonne's, Grand Prix, Catalina models were the "Wide Trac" boats with 400 4bbl and auto 400turbohydro tranny. If it's a convertible, hang onto it......
If it's a GTO with a 6pack his/hers, don't get the bike anywhere near, so it doesn't fall over and scratch it!!!

...and if you have a complete set of 8 lug wheels, you can retire next week. Well, almost.

PS: You might want to check out the Pontiac-Oakland Club International (POCI). I was a member 30 years ago when I owned an '84 Fiero, '27 Pontiac two-door sedan, and a '75 Grand Prix.

 

Sorry for the nostalgic trip, Jeeper. Lotsa great Poncho memories for me, and developing my mechanical chops.
....and then there was the aftermarket 5-quart oil pan and hi-flow oil pump install on the (factory) 4 quart oil pan Fiero. Oh yeah.....

 

haha,its a 67 Tempest Gold with black interior,49k original paint,was an ohc car but now has a 1970 ram air 4 400/th350.

 

I can talk Pontiacs all day.grew up riding in a red 65 4 speed tri power..ive oqned a 64 Goat,64 tempest,67 lemans,67 tempest wagon,my current 67 tempest that Ive owned since 1998.Was brought home from hospital in 78 in my grandmothers 67 tempest.Owned plenty of birds,trans ams,and still have my 84 trans am,which I drive daily unless its wet out

 

I do still have to adjust my rear suspension.I plan on doing that in the next few days.Hopefully itll sit better then.But Im 5 foot 8,the bike is sitting higher than Id like it too right now

 

Good stuff, Jeeper. (GM was foolish for dropping the Pontiac line. What a performance heritage. Same goes for dropping Oldsmobile--had some good times in a '67 442. Somehow Buicks just don't have the same "shut up and hold on" image.) PM me if I can ever be of help.

 

I made a foot out of some fairly stiff but flexible polyurethane:






Ron

 

I made this to keep in the tank bag for trail riding. It's made of 2 Foursquare electrical box covers bolted together.

 

After doing the fork and shock springs with more suitable units for me, my bike "stood up" more than it had, so I had to mod my kickstand a little bit. The large foot pad on the OEM stand allows for the fitment of a "block" of whatever size you need to suit your needs. I cut off a piece of aluminum plate and sized it on a grinder to fit the foot pad. I drilled 2 holes in the foot pad and aluminum block and bolted it in place. The nice thing is that if anything else changes on my bike to alter the lean angle, I haven't ruined the OEM kickstand by cutting or welding. I can just make another aluminum block of the needed depth to replace the first one and just bolt it in place.
