Default Kickstand

Does anyone know who makes a kickstand (Jiffy stand) for a lowered '84 FXR? That means I need a kickstand one inch shorter than OEM.
I can't seem to find one.
It looks like this.
Thanks in advance.
Larry

I know you can find them in the drag specialties catalog but you're gonna have to go to a shop to be able to order one.

The Drag Specialties catalog does not show a stand like pictured above.

Cur an inch out of it and weld it back together.

Some one makes a wedge that goes between the jiffy stand and chassis that will kick it up a little for lowered bikes.. I found one, here you go..

That won't work for a FXR.

There are two kickstands for the FXR. The Sport models have a taller kickstand.

When I lowered my FXR the bike stood "too straight up" when on the jiffy stand. I asked Red about it, without saying a word... he lit his Oxy/acetylene torch, held the flame on the stand, right at the bend until it softened juusssstttt enough to let the bike lean at a better angle. Ezy Peazy.
That was 25 yrs or so back...still working just fine.
