Favor to ask Prep and replica owners

Greetings all,

Got a favor to ask the guys with the prep or replica bikes.
Can you please measure from the center of the pivot bolt to the end of your side stand, and let me know how long it is.

As you might know, after wrecking my prep, I bought a Rockster. I put Ohlins on it, and a shorter lever arm, and now the bike sits too high for the stock side-stand (leans way too much when on sidestand), so I need to figure out a way to either replace the side stand, or modify it.
If the prep sidestand is longer than the one I got on my rockster, then It'll be easier to get the parts I need to make the swap.

Thanks in advance,

-arbi

without measuring it, it is longer as the prep and rep have taller suspension. just get someone to weld a riser to the foot or you could order the side stand for a prep/rep. will see if i can get a chance to measure it, but if someone else gets a chance, by all means do so.

'05 BCR stand measured from the pivot directly to the inside contact point is 11 1/2 inches, maybe 11 3/4, there's no one here to hold the bike upright to get an exact measurement.
