....can someone post a photo of a "virgin" kick stand handle?...I'd like to know how to correctly bend mine back into proper position - it's been bent and adjusted too many times to remember.

I don't have a pic but it wraps around your pipe about 1/4" off of it like a 1/2 circle.

If it's not tucked in far enough, it WILL scrape in a tight twoostie. If it's too close to the pipe you can't grab it with yer toe.

There was a funny story or two while back about the toe knob poking inside the sole of a boot and then Gravity has her way..........
