Need shorter kickstand
« on: March 26, 2007, 12:17:29 PM »
I put lowering blocks on my 750 which made the kick stand obsolete.  Any suggestions on where to get a shorter kick stand?

Thanks, cleveland

Just take yours and bend it..
Take some MAP gas and heat the kickstand up.
While you are doing this have someone lean on the bike (towards the kickstand) and eventually
you will feel the bike start to lean more and more. Once it is done just a quick spray if black spraypaint and u are done..

I did this on both of my bikes with no issues.
