Shorter kickstand
« on: August 18, 2011, 12:00:08 AM »

I lowered my 2012 flrtx and was wondering where I can find a shoter kickstand? I would like black if possible.

To get a shorter kickstand you can look at various aftermarket catalogs.  You might want to consider a simpler solution.  HD has various shims that attach between the kickstand mechanism and the frame.  The various shims affect the angle of the kickstand and how the bikes it when it is on the kickstand.  You might want to try that befor replacing the entire kickstand. Just something to consider.
