Haven't looked, but have asked the question on here:-

I do believe that the S version does indeed fit the X, though more knowledgble people on the above site are a better source of info than me
You could try looking at bike breakers for a 2nd hand item - fleabay is as good a place as any to start as breakers seem to love that place . . . as do scumbags selling off bits from theived bikes.

Re: beast way to lower my honda nc750x advice please
pretty sure the S sidestand is shorter, as the X has 1" longer forks.
Apart from the fairings (and fork lengths) they are identical.
All the NCs are difficult to get onto the centre-stand.
.. there is a knack to it, or simply park in a slight hollow.
its better to be a bit shorter in the sidestand than longer, for parking, as you will find a higher spot easier than a lower spot. (eg. petrol station)
There is also the Forza 750 which has some different parts (eg. swingarm is longer).
The NC forums will probably give you actual sidestand lengths ... they're pretty good like that.

according to the above link .. the S sidestand is 1" shorter than the X sidestand.
.. but another member just used the oem sidestand from the X after lowering the rear by an inch.
