Removing the Old Kickstand

Carefully peel back the footmat making sure not to tear the rubber.

The 3 screws underneath the footmat.

There are three hex/Allen M2.5/2.5mm machine screws holding the kickstand in place circled in red.

Remove all of these and then carefully remove the old kickstand and kickstand well.
