My kickstand bounces around so bad and the mount is so bent that it is constantly banging on the swingarm.
It bounces and hits the ground at times. Really annoying.
I can bend the mounting part, but wonder if the spring is worn out and what to do. Do I get a stock spring? Aftermarket? Where?

Mine was a combination of the pivot pin being worn, the connecting bolt also worn..and the spring being weenie.
Replace the fastener hardware, cut the spring, heat it up and bend a new hook to it.
Worked for me!!
