I just purchased an adjustable kickstand from www.tobefast.com, so just giving my review of it..
Pros- defintatly the price is a major positive, way cheaper than the other ones i found
love the ability to adjust to 5 different positions, so when I strap the bike, I don't have to worry about the lean of the bike.
little yamaha emblem way cool...
Cons- the major con was the little screw that held the bottom portion on, catches on my stock rearsets, and when I downshift, I had to kick it lose.. (I removed the cover for the screw in the meantime until I get a shorter screw, but still can't use the screw cover.
another bad thing was where you mount the kickstand to the bike, if you tightened it up, the stand would not move, it needs to be shaved down just a tad bit so that it has a little more play
and it only comes in billet, great, that's the only billet color I have on my bike. For $169, even all black would of been acceptable.
Overall opinion, if it wasn't for the price, compared to other models, I would not recommend it, but the price does make up for it. I am not downing tobefast, cuase I have bought plenty of stuff from them, but If you have the money, try another brand, if not, then it will do.
