It's just a jiffy stand.

IIRC it is remove spring, remove bolt, remove kickstand, reverse with new one. What's to know?

I am pretty sure there are instructions in the pack when you buy it. You will need a way to prop/jack up the bike or have somebody sit on the bike while you get under it to change it all over.

It's a 5 minute job, my boyfriend changed mine over while I sat on my bike off the kickstand. I much prefer the longer kickstand.

Why do you need a longer kick stand? Longer front end? Or is it the piece that you kick out with your heel, that you're extending?

I needed it out more so I can reach it,and it was easier to buy a new kick stand then the extender so putting a longer kick stand on.
