I finally got an extra kickstand for my
S2T and want to bend it so the bike will stay more upright. For those of you that have done this already, my question is, did you make the bend above or below the tab for the spring? I was thinking that a bend above the spring might shorten the distance the spring must stretch and make it too weak to hold the stand up. Does anyone have a good photo of this mod that they could post here.
Thanks,
John

I've got the famous Aaron Wilson mod done to my kickstand while my bike was up there getting the 1250 kit.





I hope the links and pics help!
