So I just added 6" to my swingarm with the LRC kit and I have 2" lowering links but will it be enough to still use the stock kickstand because it's leaning pretty hard right now! Tire Vehicle Automotive tire Auto part Wheel

it doesn't look like a lot in the second picture but in person it looks like it's gonna fall over!

I got a second kickstand off eBay for my 636. I cut the foot off, then cut a little at a time till it was right and had the right angle, then had the foot welded back on. Stand was $20 plus my time with a hacksaw that I had . Welding cost me a 6 pack of beer. The I just painted the welded area with rattle can to match. I was in it. $40 total.

You can also use a dirt bike triangle in the axle hole, but that's ghetto

I know someone with a shortened kick stand (Hint: It's me). It's a OEM one that has been cut and welded. It would work perfect for your application. $17 shipped and it's yours.
