How do you mean, lower..? So the bike leans over more..? Or a shorter one..? I'm putting an extention on mine to make it easier to find...
The only problem I've heard of was a pain putting on and taking off of the spring..

I guess not Rhubarb! I would flip it over, but I do have a Harley, not a Huffy. Thanks for asking though!

Don't know about lower, but I am just trying to get the bike to it's correct original lean, so I have a 1" under kickstand (should be in by tomorrow) that I am going to replace the stock kickstand with.
