    I am looking to verify that this is the standard length kick stand for the first Gen 750. I feel like this is off of another bike and is way too short. Lean angle is knarly.
    Confirmation would be most helpful! Oh and the 400 is selling as I type. Keeping big red and selling the 400. Go figure. image.jpg

    10" is what I measured on one of my RC26's, Rogue. Agree about the lean - it's always felt a little precarious to me!

    Sorry to hear about the 400. OTOH - frees up space for another one.....:)

    The fact that the foot is flat on the ground is a good sign. Many of my bikes have that because they have had the rear ride height increased and the front ends lowered. And I actually don't mind that much, as it opens up more parking spaces then takes away. Having my bike more vertical make me way more nervous than over a bit. Plus you can always carry a little thick disc of ABS in the tank bag for a "shim", doesn't take up hardly any space.

    Those are some good points. I have some small pieces of building material I have used in the past when needed. Not at a public place though - just at home or my storage units.
