... how low are you going.... you may have to heat and bend the kick stand...

....remember, you ride this, do not cut corners to try and get a mod done... just cause it is easier does not mean that it is the right way to do things... take your time, "do it once, do it right"

I wouldn't recommend the heating and bending of the kickstand. That is just an accident waiting to happen due the tempering be compromised.She has a "low" model already, which has the lowest stock sportster kickstand available....HMM, I think you can get an even shorter kickstand through J&P Cycles, but I'm not 100% sure.
