07 heritage kickstand problem

Has anyone ever have the problem with reaching the kickstand?&nbsp\\; As it's so forward!&nbsp\\; Harley is trying to figure out what they can come up with.&nbsp\\; I just traded my Nightster in on a new Heritage!&nbsp\\; Thanks guys and gals.

Yep, I noticed the same thing last month when I got my new '08 Heritage, but have now gotten used to it...just takes a little extra reach.

Its the same on the Heritages from the 90s. Harley sure is taking a long time to solve this mysterious problem.

Gundog I've been wishing for longer legs for 43 yrs.&nbsp\\; LOL&nbsp\\; Problem is I can't reach it at all.&nbsp\\; I can reach about the back of the step plate.&nbsp\\; I've got the same colours on my bike black cherry and silver.&nbsp\\; I'll eventually airbrush it with a theme after I get caught up with people waiting for my work.

RE: 07 heritage kickstand problem

Harleys dont have kickstands, that would explain the reach thing.&nbsp\\; I cant reach one from my bike either, unless my son parks his bicycle really nearby.
&nbsp\\;
Reaching the jiffy stand just takes practice.
