Default Kickstand

I recently did the 600rr swingarm swap to my f4i. everything went smoothly and the bike rides nice however, the kickstand seems as if it's not long enough. the bike leans over much farther than normal now. im wonderin if i didn't adjust the shock correctly? i used the linkage off the 1000rr, is that ok? also, the bike seems as if it will tank slap easily (the handle bars wiggle easy when shimmying from side to side while riding) but it does turn in ALOT easier now and the handling feels more sharp. anyone with advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks

I dont know anything about the tail swap but as for the turning being real easy
I think that would be better, I'd just try gettin used to it.

how do you adjust the preload on the shock without the tool kit from the 1000. does anyone know how much you can adjust the preload safely? i think lowering the back about 1.5 inches will fix the problem.
