Are you guys keeping the stock kickstand when you lower the front of the bike? I have the rear lowered 1 3/4" and the bike still has a decent lean to it when on the stand. I am about to install Progressive drop-in kit in the front and lower it 1 3/4" also. Will I need a shorter stand?
Im lowered 2" front and rear, I have a arlen ness lowered kick stand. It says is one inch shorter. My bike leans enough with the lowered stand but I think the stock one would be to long and kind of sketchy leaving my bike unattended.
I also use the Arlen Ness 1" shorter kickstand. Some will say the stock one will do but all it takes is one tip over and you'll remember this thread. Ask me how I know.
I take the stock Jiffy off the bike, chuck it up in a vise (soft-jaws) and give the bottom a few good whacks with a big hammer. Reducing the angle makes the bike lean over further.
