    yes. both feet are on the ground, most of the time, depends on the road, etc.. I am also more confident and comfortable since I bought it only this past Feb. I didn't do anything to modify it. The spriing setting is on the tightest setting. I'd have to double check the number as I didn't do it myself.
    It's tipped over twice on gravelly/tar surface, as I was dismounting. Again, never had a bike do this and always make sure the bike is in gear, kick stand is secure and tire cocked far left.
    Gotta be the kick stand doesn't like the low setting...poo.
    Thanks Krey and everyone else. Sorry if I "highjacked a thread" or offended anyone.

      You can take the kickstand to a welding shop, have them cut 3/4-1" out of the center, weld the ends back together.

      Or...

      You can buy something like this...

        Krey, do you know if the 600 and 750 kick stands are interchangable ?

          They are the same or close enough to be 100% interchangable. I've yet to find a differnce, but I've not nessasarily spec-ed them out.
