I just want to take a moment to bitch about how much I hate the placement of the bolts on this freaking side stand.

Two screws - #5 in that pic - I can access the rearmost one just by reaching under the bike, but the forward one is so close to the side stand sensor I have no idea how I am supposed to access it without removing the freaking swingarm nut (#4) This is an insane amount of disassembly work to fix a problem I am now having very frequently (side stand bolts coming loose). Anyone have a tip for how to reach the two bolts without taking the whole damn side stand off?
This the left hand side, no? Just take nut off. Easy. If it was the right side... then you’d have room to bitch. Impact wrench is your buddy.
