Kickstand for slammed street bob?
Since lowering my bike I have a lot of trouble with the stance of it on the kickstand. Any kind of left to right decline is a definate no-no, and a simple bump on flat ground will knock it over. Anyone got a trick with the stock stand or know where to get a better one?

There is a mod in here somewhere. You could use a torch to heat it and bend it to the angle you need or you could buy a 1" under kick stand. Search this link for the mod.

+1 with this. This is free and easy to do. Just grind off 1/8" or so at a time until you get the desired lean angle.
