Kick Stand (Side Stand) issue, bike leans way over

Trapping your fingers under the sidestand, while leaning over trying to pick up that handy lump of plywood hurts.

Especially if being watched by your riding buddies!
 
I made a round saucer pad out of Uru. I through it on the ground and put the bike's stand on it. When it's time to go I get on the bike and raise it up. Then I hold out my hand and the pad flies up to it and gets stowed. No strings attached. Easy peasy.
 
Check your rear shock preload adjuster is probably set to hard. Back it off all the way, then turn it in to the normal setting as marked on the unit.
 
Saw this online and thought it was pretty cool.
Good thing about having a sandal as a "foot", you can just change the heel height of the sandal if you want more or less height! lol
