had the same problem finding the kickstand but after a week it got better and now a month later I don't even think about it. defiantly have to lean the bike right especially after lowering it
I had the same problem, I installed the extension. But it looks like crap you can see it in the small avatar picture. Might just take it off and try getting the "feel" for the dam tang.

The extension is shaped to simplify locating the tab with your boot, and aid in swinging the jiffy stand into position. Kit mounts to Original Equipment jiffy stand Includes all required mounting hardware
I had that problem after installing the solo bag and designed an extension with some drilled 1" metal stock, nuts and bolts, costing out at about five bucks.
However, after a while I got used to just digging my heel in to the right spot to catch the stand and just went with that instead of making the extension.
Before the bag, it was no problem snagging the stand.
I haven't made this suggestion to the OP yet but if you look down you reall can see where the end of the stand is, take your time and look for it first and in a few days you will know automatically where it is.
There was an extension on the bike I just bought already, and I don't even think it's that noticeable looking at it, but it really does make putting the stand down effortless. I can just sweep forward and catch it with my toe and swing it around without thinking.
