Default short jiffy stand
I've got 11 inch rear shocks and 2 inch lowered front shocks. I feel nervous the the bike is too upright on the Jiffy stand. It also feels like the jiffy stand might fold under. I don't want to let it run without being in the saddle. Does anyone have a shorter Jiffy stand? If so, where did you get it. Or, am I just worried about nothing and the bike will be fine on the stock one.

The way I understand it you can grind down the tab that rests against the frame to get more lean.

I ground down my stops gave me a lot more lean, Stoll the idea from Bosken I think he started a thread on how to do it.
