Hey Jammerx, I ordered one of these and installed. I love it! I was worried if it would move the stand too far forward, I'm 5' 8" with a 30 inch inseam. It turns out 10 degrees isn't a big deal and this definitely moves the extended Jiffy stand to a more comfortable zone.

(I quoted Jammerx without the huge ebay photo. Just click the link OR go to post #53 in this thread)

 

Tough lesson - glad that nothing more than your pride was hurt!

 

I just ordered one of those 10 degree lock plates after reading this thread. I KNOW the jiffy stand locks in place, I used to move dozens of Harleys a day in packed storage areas and often didnt even have enough room to upright them first. I 100% know its impossible for them to fold if they are properly deployed....but that STILL doesnt stop the mini heart attack I have every time the bike leans forward the instant I walk away from it. Maybe this new stop will let my heart last a little longer! 8*)
