Stock side stand is on the short side of ideal. Any suggestions?

The various sidestands are interchangeable at the joint, but the lean angle of the bike can vary significantly if swapped because they have different lengths. Unfortunately, there's no aftermarket support for these identified yet.

Some documentation is here:

Perhaps you could glue a thick piece of rubber to the foot of your stand. No doubt you could find something like that your local hardware store, or you could cut off a small piece off of an old motorcycle or car tire.

I'm cool with the glued rubber thing but the DS sidestand is longer so you could just get one of those.
