Default side stand after lowering?

Hi,


I had my 2020 model lowered using a lust racing lowering kit, the side stand looks like it may need some adjustment, but i was thinking of replacing it with one that is adjustable.


thoughts and/or advise welcome/

buy a second hand side stand and have it altered. that way you know it fits properly.

I've just gone the other way with a longer shock. I was surprised (literally) how much difference it made -when the sidestand didn't touch down when I was expecting it to, I thought I'd forgotten to put it down and the bike was going over. Heart started pounding and I'm pretty sure I swore in that half second or so
