Nice pic and write-up here, Rich.
And I know what you mean about the kickstand. I also noticed the rather vague "I wonder if that sucker was fully deployed or not" feeling of it too when I took those demo rides a while back on these fantastic new Indians.
In THIS case I can only think they must've copied the way Harley does their kickstands, 'cause I always got that same feeling about those not having a more positive and definite stop whenever I kicked 'em down on most H-Ds I've ever ridden or sat on.
