Shorter sidestand
Does anyone know of any sidestand to fit the TRX that are shorter than the original?
After my front end rework the bike is now lower and it stands up almost vertical when parked on the sidestand.
I'd rather not cut into my original stand, hoping to find another that bolts straight in but is a touch (1/2" should do ) shorter.

Re: Shorter sidestand
I'll have to check..but iirc early R6 ie 99/00 may have a shorter stand compatible.
I WOULD RATHER WEAR OUT THAN RUST

Basically it goes like this: Buy another TRX side-stand and `doctor` it, SIMPLES.
