Problem fitting longer rear shock FZS600

[joebloggs]

Picked up a ZX12R rear shock off ebay and went to fit it this morning, top bush need drilling and lower holes smaller than stock but not really an issue, what is though is the clearance between center stand mount and the suspension rocker, I could wind in the preload to shorten the shock but raising the rear was part of the reason for fitting the thing in the first place.

Question is did I do something wrong when fitting the shorter dog bones or has anyone else had the bike on the stand and removed the shock only to fine the rear wheel still off the ground (I expected the wheel to hit the floor)
