Kickstand Extenter
I didn't know where to put this thread so I put it here. Does any one know of where to get or how to make a kickstand extender? I need to add about an inch. My bike is top-heavy now and I need it a little more upright. I am considering a new, adjustable one but until then I want to extent mine.
Thanks
Thanks

Maybe put a rubber foot on it? https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...0rubber%20foot

Owner of LBS used a greenfield rear mount kick(with some modifications, LOTS of mods used on this bike), and used steel tubing(plus cap/foot) to put a kick on a bike that was not meant for town use at all, much less to have a kick stand. It makes a great "urban assault vehicle" though, and is his main winter rig(thanks to studded tires).

the foot bolts to the aluminum upper bart , so by moving the bolts and nuts to alternate holes you adjust the length..
if you saw off most kickstands , they wont grow back .
though welding aluminum on may help.
but Greenfield KS are only $10. retail..
