It looks like there's a replacement available for the kickstand. It's shorter than what was delivered (for my bike at least) and increases the lean angle quite a bit more.
Enjoy!

It's a recall, the dealer will take care of it. Way, way better with the new one. I was so worried before that the bike will fall.

However, the owners manual only explicitly lists China, Korea, Thailand and Taiwan:
