side stand question

Hi all, not quite a newbie....
I have gone for some lowering links for my xt660z terere (09). They are the ones with 4 way adjustment, and I am putting them on at the 25mm reduction. I have also dropped the yokes down the the forks the same amount. So the side stand is going to be too long. So the question is; will one off an X or R fit (as I can't find a tenere one)? I don't mind cutting the length down, what I want to know about is the the pivot/top part.
I have had a go at living with it, but I am 6 foot and I still think it is high as standard, I am sure it would topple on me at some point. Any thoughts appreciated.
