Default 2016 heritage kickstand

Any mechanical answers for folding the kickstand back on my 2016 Heritage. I love how the bike is nice and low but the reach for the kickstand is too long for me. I've looked at the extenders but all they do is help to but the kickstand down. All other ideas for an extension would hit the primary.

You will probably have to have one custom made. I am on the short inseam side myself
That was one of the many reasons I went with a Deluxe, I could actually reach the jiffy stand , I had trouble with the Heritage and Fatboy. Good luck with it.

Perhaps the "Ergo Jiffy Stand" would help.

I found if you have a good pair of boots on with a tractor type lug sole on them and you slide your butt forward on the seat the lugs on your shoes seem to hook onto the bottom tab on the jiffy stand. It works for me as I have the same bike as you.

My wife is 5'1" she has the 2016 Heritage with reduced reach seat. She does the same as she did on her Slim. Lift the foot board up, it will stay on up and give you more room to reach the Jiffy Stand

Per Bluraven the Ergo Jiffy stand might be your answer, it is the one that comes standard on the Deluxe, I have no trouble reaching it, but the Deluxe has a narrower floor board.
