Finally got some sun. see attached. Pics 1, 1A and 1B are the bike parked on a piece of shale around .50 to .75 inches high. Pics 2, 2a and 2B are off that piece of shale. It's hard to see what I'm seeing, but if you look past the bike to the red engine cover of the lawnmower behind the bike in pics 1 and 2, you can see the lean difference.
 
Probably would help if I actually posted the pics. see attached...

Obliged for your suggestion and confirmation-by-example, thank you. I've ordered a shoe, won't be delivered for a few weeks, but confidence is high. I'll post back with results.

Best,

Gents,
Like the ugly stepsisters in Cinderella, the shoe didn't fit. My stand is too wide for the shoe ordered, but it is definitely the way to go. Thanks again for the point in the right direction. I'll get it sorted
 
I purchased one of those shoes for my TRX 850 Yamaha. You would be surprised how much difference 2.5 mm doesn't make. Another internet purchase that has been binned.
 
On tfhe other hand a good angle grinder can work wonders.............
Finally getting around to posting back on this. I did a search for a shoe specific to a Triumph Speedmaster and found one. It fits like a, well, shoe, but as advertised, one sized specifically for the Speedmaster/Bobber. It can be found at:

Apologies for the delay, but I was still a little wary of the lean angle initially after install when parked, so I wanted to try it out on different surfaces/conditions, including soft gravel after a rain, before posting here. I have no complaints.

Have pics, but site keeps giving me a "file too large" error. I'll post if I can get that sorted (posted previous pics just fine), but if you follow the link, the pics there should answer any questions

Best Regards and appreciate you all, thanks again!
