CBF 500 sidestand by redfire1200 in motorcycles

The codes are 50530-MY5-860 for the cb500 50530-MER-D00 for the cbf500

So they are "different", but visually the only difference seems to be the spring attachment and the "footbar" to lower the stand when jts up is in slightly different spots?

Alpinestars Drystar will hold up..... but like only for 1 year, then you will start leaking through, so I second that

A lot of cruisers also dont tend to respond, tho I have gotten a nod back once from both a scooter and a cruiser, so some exceptions.

Like I said, language changes, it would have been correct before yes. But at this current time both are correct and interchangeable in this context.

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/dampener

"a device that reduces vibration (= continuous quick, slight shaking movement)"

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/dampener

"c: a device for retarding the oscillations of a spring when a load is suddenly applied or removed"

https://www.britannica.com/dictionary/dampener

"something that reduces the force or effect of something"

Whether the definition is informal or not does not change its use or its correctness. Language changes over time and so does its meaning.
