don't get me wrong here boys its anything but staight up it still has more lean than alot of other bikes

 

I think kuryakyn or maybe JPCycles sell a couple but I think I'll leave mine the way it is.

Just my 2 bits,

If you think it's leaning too much compare it to another Ultra. Maybe it's bent.

 

I TOTALLY agree with timvan. It's the same kickstand that's on the LOWERED Street Glide. My '07 Ultra leans over WAYYYY to far. At one motorcycle event, they parked EVERYONE on a slope to the left. I couldn't get it off the kickstand. Needed a friends help. He agreed with me. Too short of a kickstand. Yes, I know, that it won't fall, and to trust the kickstand. If someone , even Harley, would sell a LONGER, QUALITY kickstand, I bet that they would sell hundreds if not thousands.

 

Some early 09s had the wrong jiffy stand bracket installed. There is a new replacement part 50096-09. Your dealer may swap it at no cost, ask them. I just went ahead and ordered one last week, like $65 after discount.

 

i too have had situations where a longer stand would have been bad. As others have said trust the stand, it works well. Also if it was up too straight, i don't know if i would want my wife climbing around on it without me holding it, to make sure it didn't tip over to the right.

I don't see why HD doesn't offer a longer Jiffy Stand, for those that want one.
If Harley has scientifically figured out what the exact length of the Jiffy Stand should be, why don't they use a shorter stand for the Street Glides,Deluxes or the SE Fat Boy, like I own. I haven't read about any owners complaining about these models falling over, because the Jiffy Stand was too long.

How did you come to this conclusion? would make sence if its more upright

 

You think that's bad. Try lowering the bike. Then, it will really make you nervous. I have never gotten used to the Hraley stands anyhow. While I have never seen or heard of one failing, the fact that they lock into place in so many diffferent locations just gives me the collective creeps.
