yes,,.,according to the mod inventor

If you look under the bike you´ll see a small vertical plate velded on the sidestand, the whole bike rest on this small plate. Grind off 5mm here and you gain approx 1" at the end!

See if I can find the pics in the under 50$ thread..

here is a pic of the plate.. arrow shows the plate.. grind it down and the bike will lean more, easy but true!
