See if you can find a stiff hose(pvc or rubber) to push on the "toe thing-a-ma-jig" just enough so it sticks past the floorboard and able to catch it with you foot.




I was looking at mine yesterday and that's not a bad idea. If it helps at all, that could determine if it is worth pulling the kickstand to have it altered. A welding shop could easily attach a longer, better shaped tang for your foot to grab. I bet for less than $50.
