Re: Difficulty getting sidestand up
And it does not look to be fully retracted. Another case of difficulty getting it up !!.

Re: Difficulty getting sidestand up
I have the Ilium side stand extender on my LC, makes it so much easier to get the side stand up/down.

Re: Difficulty getting sidestand up
After reading this post again I reviewed how I put the side stand up and found I hook my toe around the stand and flick it up, rather than use the ball extension!
At 6’6” (1.98m) with a 34 inside leg, size 10 feet, I guess it just works that way for me. I do have the wunderlich side stand enlarger fitted too, but the RTP versions I ride don’t.
