Anybody know where I could find a kick stand about an inch longer than stock for an 06 S2R1000 ? I raised the rear a bit and now it leans a whole lot ... I just have a bad feeling about it...

If you try to push it over, you'll see that it takes a lot. Not very likely to tip over.

Nevertheless, MotoCreations have something coming - don't know when.

Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

Oncycles still have some cyclecat kick stands that are 1" longer than oem

Pretty sure those aren't for S*R bikes. Single/double lip issues IIRC.

Well i just found another solution .. Im using my 848 kickstand on my monster . Its not that much longer, maybe 1/4"  , but i think the angle is a lil different . I put it on and now the monster sits at a better angle, and i like the wider bottom better also, wont sink in pavement as easy ...

You can always just find an empty beer/soda can, flatten it and put it under your stand to keep it from sinking.
