Default 11" shocks

Anyone that has installed 11" shocks do you need the 1" lower kickstand with a stock front end?
Cheers.

My bike had the rear lowered 1” with lowering blocks when I got it which I promptly removed. Stand worked fine and hardly noticed a difference when I removed it. It had the stock jiffy stand on it.

My wife's sportster was lowered and the stand also worked fine, but we had the lean the bike slightly to the right to get it full extended before putting it down on the stand.

This isnt like those who raise their bike and have the gangsta lean that comes with that.

Hey KC... Post a close up Pic of your primary cover, can't tell what that is?
Looks like something with tusk and a Mohawk
