First post, and apologies for not finding the answer first....definitely spent the time looking.....
I have a 2012 S10 and installed Knight Designs lowering pegs. Turns out the new pegs are lower than the little ball that sticks out from the sidestand and there‘s interference with my toe now.
I’ve read that the sidestand was revised for gen 2, and photos indicate that the newer sidestand doesn’t have the little ball on a post anymore.
Finally my question: what is that little ball for? Can I saw it off or bend it out of the way? Can I install the gen2 sidestand on a gen1?
All I can figure is that the little ball is there to protect the shifter if the bike falls down, but don’t know why it would be missing in the gen2 if that were the case....
any info to help the noob would be much appreciated! Many thanks.
