Question Jiffy/Kick Stand help

Never thought about it till now. While waiting for my Shotgun shock to arrive, will the stock jiffy/kick stand work? I am also lowering the front of the bike with the progressive drop in kit. Any help on this please...

Stock stand works just fine on rides with an air suspension

I have an 06 Deluxe with the Shotgun on back and dropped the front an inch and put progressive gas monotubes in it. The stock stand works just fine but you do want to be careful if you park in on like a grade or something like that. I have parked mine with the front wheel out straight to give it a better "lowered" look or parked with the wheel cocked. It works just fine both way's. P.S., you are going to LOVE your bike when you are done with the install too!!!

If you have a deluxe or cross bones the kickstand is already 1" lower than a regular softail kickstand. If not it wills till work. Ensure your bars are turned to the left when you are slammed all the way.
