ok, i have a 65 series car tire, factory shocks, on my I/S.

question, can i add a washer to the kickstand to hold the bike a little more upright?
it sits over very far as is.

Yes, tuck a washer behind, and tighten good.

When I went to the Cooper my lean angle didn't change noticeably. If anything, on a hill, I'd like to be able to kick her further over.

Do you have a 65 series, or a 60 or 55?  The 65 is taller.   I see Sugarbear has an IS.  It seems like they lean over more stock???  Anyone else notice this?  Going to a 65 on my std did not seem to make enough difference to matter.

A 55 is smaller than stock, so should not be a problem????
