Common problem mate, it's due to a bit of movement in the frame and wear on the frame stops.
Easiest solution is to weld a couple of discs (spacer) on top of the stand, probably only need to be 1-2mm thick so it takes up the slack.
I have a stand with this mod but not got any pics at the mo but I should take some for reference purposes.

Ive just fitted a centre stand to my 250lc and it had a similar mod in the way of 2-3mm of weld on the top of the upper stand legs and it's spot on height wise now :-)
