Yes, when the rear is raised the side stand gets a bit short. Many have made 'KISS" boots to extend the side stand. Some cut and weld a longer side stand. I made a KISS boot for my side stand. I also keep a round piece of aluminum as a side stand puck when I think the ground is too soft.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.
