  • Lengthening the kick stand.

    I put on the shorter dogbones on my bike, and I expected it to affect the centerstand and kick stand, but damn, my bike REALLY leans over now. It's not unstable, but I know if it's possible I should fix this.

    Is it even possible to remove the bracket that the kickstand is attached to? It looks welded, but I haven't taken the lower fairing off to get a better look at it.
    If it isn't (which I have a sinking suspicion is the case), then has anybody hotwired the kickstand safety switch and just thrown on a different kickstand? Or better yet, found a different Suzuki kickstand with the same style safety switch lever and just a longer kickstand?
