Lowering links and shorter side stand

I sold my wife's GS500E last year, but I still have the aluminum lowering links and shorter side stand that the buyer didn't want/need.  I bought the links new and I chopped about 1.5" out of the side stand, then reinforced it with an inner sleeve and TIG welded the whole thing back together.  If you lower your bike without the shorter side stand it will likely tip over, hence the need for the shorter stand.  My wife was 5'1" and the lowered bike was perfect for her. 

$50 + $10 shipping to anywhere in the lower 48.  Contact Matt via email at balloonguy/at/protwister/dot/com.  You can respond here, but I don't check this board very frequently.

Thanks!

Would you be interested in selling the side stand separately?

I just found out that my bike has them. 

The previous owner must have put them on.

These links have two holes at one end.

Is one hole for stock height and one for lowered?

And, which hole is which?
