Why go to the expense and hassle of Ti for a side stand, some decent 6082 aluminium would be fine?
I made my own ages ago, that's never been a problem in the above.

Could even make them adjustable for length too, so it doesn't fall over when you jack it up at the rear so it turns properly..................................

I'd settle for just being able to put the stand down and walk away without checking it

Maybe you could work out a price, I think the SB6 needed and extra 35mm over standard - I'm sure could give a figure for a standard tail height

It comes down to numbers again, if there's a few needed, it's far easier to op the machining into easy stages, the guy who does my aluminium welding too will be far chearer per stand if there is a few to do, as he only has one set up time, which works exactly the same for the machining, only one set up and more parts made makes them more cost effective.
Guess what I'm saying is, lets see what interest there is in them, then I can work a price out to make that number.
Cheers, shout up then guys!

I'll take some pics, but it looks like a regular Bimota stand but in Aluminium, not steel.
And the OE stand is on the heavy end of the spectrum to say the least, which is why I made the aluminium one.

Well now would be a good time for a small mod......make the foot a fraction bigger to stop it sinking into the tarmac
Adjustable would be an excellent idea too
Subject to cost...I'm in.
