Hey Trev,
Here's something to think about and check the situation with your Duck foot side stand.
Back in 02, I installed the progressive stuff on my new wing. I also installed the Duck foot stand.
It did seem to lift the bike a little but I also noticed a disturbing condition.
This could get a little long but I want to share what I found and why it seemed very important to me.
As we all know, in addition to being designed to hold the bike up, it is designed to
"keep the bike from rolling forward".
This is accomplished by the geometry of the mount and pivot of the stand.
When the stand is in it's full down position, it projects forward from it's mounting point.
With this condition, for the bike to roll forward, the weight of the bike has to be lifted some,
so the kickstand can rotate past the pivot point.
Since the bike usually will not "rise up" without some external added incentive,
it will tend NOT to roll forward off the side stand.
Now, if all that makes sense, here's an interesting part of the Duck foot stand geometry.
When the bike is resting on the stand, you will notice that the only part,
of the bottom of the foot, that is resting on the ground, is the rear edge.
The rest of the foot is angled upwards towards the front of the bike, leaving a gap
between most of the foot and the ground. (up to about a half inch at the far forward edge of the foot).
Now, imagine pushing forward on the bike.
The rear edge of the stand foot is still slightly in front of the stand pivot point,
so the bike will have to "rise" very slightly, to allow the stand to swing to the rear.
However, remember that the bike may now be standing more upright and will therefore have less weight leaning into the stand,
and therefore may need very little incentive to rise up slightly.
But, if the Duck foot itself were entirely against the ground, without that "gap" towards the front, we have a different situation.
NOw, as the bike tries to roll forward, and the stand swings under it's pivot,
the "front edge" (toe) of the Duck Foot is already against the ground, and the rotation of the stand
tries to force the toe harder into the ground. As the rotation continues, the toe becomes the contact point with the ground,
and it tries to lift the bike a lot more, to give it room to swing past the pivot.
This makes it quite difficult to push the bike forward, off the Duck foot stand.
I JB-welded a wedge of aluminum to the bottom of my Duck foot stand,
to accomplish what I have just spoke of.
I did this because my wife has braces on both legs and has to be assisted
in mounting the Wing, while it is on the side stand.
Even though I always park the bike in gear, I wanted the best "roll off" resistance
I could get from that side stand.
It worked out very well.
Here's a picture of the Duck foot side stand with the "wedge" attached.
If yours is doing the job that's great, and you shouldn't need to do what I did.
If you have any concerns about "roll-off", this may be of help.
