Do yourself a favor and not make this harder than it needs to be. Just take it off for the track event and re-install after.

Methinks the issue is not the kickstand's existence, but the kickstand mounting point. You could probably fab up something to have a removable kickstand, but it may not be worth it.

If your form is anywhere near decent you wont be hitting the kickstand. I wouldn't be concerned about it at this point.

Still looking into this for a track 250... there does not seem to be an easy way around it. Best option I found is enduro kickstand that mounts to the swing arm with modified bracket. If you figure it out let me know!
