Topic: 74 750 kickstand length?

[Garage_guy_chris]

Alright so the kickstand on the bike is wrong someone cut it down and i have to carry a piece of wood to even it out and its getting annoying and or the bike is gonna fall over.  I have a few mystery kickstands so i was hoping someone could measure their so I can pick one to switch the stubby out with.

please measure bolt center to heel if possible.

thank you once again for helping me correct my frankenbike!

be sure your frame tabs and the tabs on the stand itself are not bent as this will also make the bike lean over too far.  Also even a whopped out pivot bolt and/or hole will affect this negatively.  I used a stand from a '76 550f once when I needed a longer than stock stand for my 750...kinda odd that the 550 stand was longer.

Everything is relatively ok with the frame tab and bolt. You can see someone has cut off the original foot and obviously part of the shaft and welded a new foot on. It looked ok but with no wheels or engine it was kinda hard to check the funtionality of it. Now that its finished its no bueno.
