This gives you a new place to attach the spring at the bottom. Then hooking spring onto this will change spring position relative to the pivot point and make it so the kickstand doesn't auto retrace.

On edit - just found this on line for previous models..

Youtube clip of master clip fix on older models (don't know if it still applies) is here...
