Royal Enfield RAW00169 – Side Stand Assembly Black for Meteor 350 BS6 (J-Series) – Genuine OEM Kick Stand

The Royal Enfield RAW00169 Side Stand Assembly – Black is the genuine OEM kick stand for the Meteor 350 BS6 (J-Series). Official parts books and international fiche list RAW00169 (and its revisions RAW00169/B, RAW00169/C, RAW00169/D) as “SIDE STAND ASSY – BLACK” for the Meteor 350, with normal quantity 1 in the stand assembly diagram.

Manufactured from mild steel with a durable black finish, this side stand is engineered around the Meteor’s frame geometry to give the correct lean angle, ground clearance and stability, whether the bike is stock or loaded with luggage and backrest. It is a direct bolt-on replacement using the original mounting point and side-stand spring, and is compatible with the factory side-stand switch (RAC00065/C), which is sold separately.

If your stock stand is bent after a fall, worn at the foot, or has rusted badly, replacing it with genuine RAW00169 restores safe parking, prevents over-leaning and keeps your Meteor 350 feeling factory-fresh — without the guesswork and poor fitment of local aftermarket stands.

FAQs

Q1. Will RAW00169 fit my Classic 350 Reborn or Hunter 350?
No. RAW00169 (and C/D revisions) are specific to the Meteor 350 BS6 J-Series. Classic Reborn, Hunter 350 and Bullet J use different side stand part numbers and geometry.

Q2. Does this side stand come with the side stand switch and spring?
Typically, RAW00169 refers to the stand assembly only. The side stand switch (RAC00065/C), collar bolt (RAW00111/A-B) and spring (591992/B or 591991/C) are separate parts. Many eBay kits bundle them, but OEM part codes are distinct.

Q3. My Meteor leans too much / feels unstable on the stand. Will this fix it?
If your existing stand is bent or worn at the pivot/foot, replacing it with a new genuine RAW00169 usually restores the correct lean angle and stability. If the frame bracket or ground surface is uneven, that can also affect stability.

Q4. Is RAW00169/C different from RAW00169/D?
Functionally, both are “Side Stand Assy – Black” for Meteor 350 BS6. The suffix mainly reflects internal revision/production changes. Fitment and geometry are the same according to parts books and dealer listings.

Q5. Is this stand genuine Royal Enfield or aftermarket?
RAW00169 as a genuine Royal Enfield product, not a pattern part. Under The Hood sells OE-packed stock only for this code.
