step one remove stand, step two place vertically on a step, step three hit with sledge hammer, step four repeat until correct angle achieved, step five refit stand.

I guess that I'm just psycho

I know who you are and I know where you live....He he ha ha!

Best to look at it as a signal to marry this chick!

Just don't let my vision come true! The night your bike crashes onto her car, the honeymoon ends.

I hope that the -1 ebay unit gives you the right tilt.

If it doesn't I will try the sledge hammer approach.

Here is the kickstand I ordered off of ebay. It works! I have to drop the kickstand with my hand instead of my foot but it sits good now. I'm glad I don't have to worry about it falling over. The end isn't as wide as the stock one but oh well.
