kickstand wont touch,

[DreyeIce]

when i had my old ceriani wheel on my ducati cadet, with the kickstand down the bach wheel went about 1" off the pavement, with my new pirelli wheel, with the kickstand up it barley touches equally on the kickstand and wheel.... that was with my 1 old saggy shock. i bought a new shock set and now my kickstand it anout 1/2" up off the ground when it is fully down.

any ideas? the bike teeters now and the stop tab for the kickstand rubs the wheel

Sounds like your new shocks are longer than the old ones.

I'm not really sure what you mean by the other stuff...

"with the (centerstand) up it barley touches equally on the centerstand and wheel...."

Do you mean with the old shocks and new wheel the centerstand and wheel both touched the ground at the same time? That means the wheel/tire are bigger than the old one was.

I'm not sure what's rubbing where but it sounds like you installed a larger wheel and longer shocks. If so, yeah, you're going to run into issues with the centerstand.

the wheel dosent look that much bigger though :0

but yes, i mean thwn the centerstand is up, NOW its about 1/2" up, before the new shock set both the the centerstand and wheel touched at the same time.

not really sure how to go about the problem :? ill get a pic soon if thatll help
