kick stand for lowered 14r

Does the side stand kill switch still work with the adjustable kick stands? Secondly are the roaring toyz ones any good, just curious since they are substantionaly cheaper than any of the others I've found.

Cutting down is what I did too but to maintain maximum strength I carefully cut off the foot, including the web. Then shortened as required (about half-an-inch was right for my bike which was lowered 3 inches) and welded the foot back on.

Cut 2 inches out of mine ... Should have cut a bit more because i didn't figure in strapping it down..
