Bike fell to the left while standing unprovoked in my garden.
Turns out the kickstand's pivot bolt broke / snapped in the middle.
This kickstand have a lot of weight on its shoulders, and it did lean to the left side more than it should.

Now I have to drill the bolt in order to replace it.

I suggest checking your bikes, and if it's lean angle is exaggerated, than use Ray's solution, before the bolt give in -
