Lowered bikes and your kickstands

[Fastfrog007]

Im droppin her all the way this season, gonna try to tuck the 240 a bit. Loose a few links, pull the tire in and gut the undertail is the plan, we'll see how that goes. Anyway, Im gettin a kickstand cut down by BigBadDodge, I need some pics of low bikes and the stands that hold em so I can get an idea of how much needs to be taken out. I dont wanna spend the money or like the looks of the aftermarket adjustable stands, so next best thing is cut stocker.

Im thinking I should error on the side of longer then do the kickstand mod if needed or bend it out a bit?

Opinons and pics please

She looks silly with her butt up the air...

lowered and cut stock kickstand with the kickstand mod, if you look hard you will find the bike

Mine's 2 inches front and rear. By the way, I didn't even do the kickstand mod and I've never had any problems with it.

i personally forgoed the stand mod, and just bought an aftermarket stand that fit appropriatly...

it may not be the cheapest route certainly... but it worked well, fit correct, and looked a little nicer than stock... there are a ton of options for either adjustable, or shortened stands that will fit the bill..

im 1 1/2 down front and rear

just my .02

no pic sorry

I did the cut, weld, grind, and repaint the stock item. If you don't like the lean after you shorten it heat it up and give it a bit of a bend...just keep the pad on the bottom

Thanks guys, Ill refer my expert welder here and we can work out what's best.

If you can weld up a bikini girl, you ccan keep the kickstand.
