hulign - 2012-02-02 6:17 PM I love the idea of the dealer fixing it but honestly I am not sure that the previous owner didnt screw it up.

That's the point...you bought it from a dealer, and a dealer has no business selling defective merchandise. That side stand sure as hell looks defective or damaged. The dealer should have replaced it before he sold it.

Don't replace the kickstand, lower the rear! HMD makes a great lowering kit. Maybe it had one on before and it got taken off before they sold it.
It does look like it leans a little beyond normal. I guess you should compare it to others at the next Victory ride. If you bought it used, even from a dealer, I doubt they will replace it. It would be consindered a mod made the previous owner. If you convince them it is a safety issue, they may replace it at cost.

Redd it was purchased from a private owner, Nozzledog that thought had crossed my mind! For now I will have the dealership take a look at it. Azllerbob sent me a pic and compared to the pic this one has a bend in it no doubt at all.

Thanks all for the advice!

Just for an update, took the stand off today and looked at it closer. There is damage on the underside of it but have no clue how it could be damaged when there isn't a scratch on anything else. So I put it it the press and now it's nice and straight. The bike sits how it should sit. Next task is to replace the rubber pad. Will keep an eye on it to see if it bends again. Still bewildered about how it got bent that way.

Thanks again all
