I have two kickstands, one for stock height and one for lowered height. Take me about 1.5 hours to do. Lower and stretch for the track, back to stock for street riding.

Damn, I had a spare adjustable billet stand a few months ago but sold it to MadKawBoy -- maybe he's got an option laying around the garage now?

I wanted the adjustable kickstand because I only lower the bike for the track and then put it back up for the road - but it was quite expensive. So I bought a standard one and cut it down, welding the foot back on. It's quick and easy to change with a couple of spanners and a spring hook, a five minute job.

Hey guys, I wanted to let you know about

They have threaded style lowering links and billet CNC'd adjustable kickstands too.
Hope that helps.
