Shorter Stands ?

I've lowered my 77' KZ1000A by using a 12" rear shock and raised fork tubes. Getting the bike up on the center stand is a "Real Struggle" and the bike sits very upright on the side stand.

The "stock" side stand measures approx. 10 3/4" from the pivot point to the end ground contact and the center stand measures 11 5/8" from it's pivot point to the ground contact.

I like to use some "Shorter" side and center stands if possible from other Kawasaki applications instead of rolling the bike up on blocks or being carefully not to knock over ny bike while it's on the side stand.

Any recommendations that you Guys may know of ?

You can shorten the side stand or made/buy an adjustable side stand.
