Default Jiffystand / kickstand

Is there an adjustment for the sidestand/jiffystand?

2005 FXDX...it seems like it is leaning over a litte more now than it used to...is there an adjustment for making the bike more upright?

It ain't the spring that'll cause it to lean over further. Look at the spot where it rests when folded up. If the stand is bent it'll rest higher. Compare it to a new bike. I've heated them and bent them on purpose to make 'em fit when I lowered a bike. Reckon it could be heated and bent the other way, but unless it's leanin' really bad I'd just go with it. Makes the bike more stable anyway.
