Not sure about the clearance but it certainly shouldn't touch.

If you post a side view pic of your bike, someone with a K3 will be able to advise on clearance.

I have just checked my K3 and my side stand is also touching the exhaust pipe when it is in the parked position. To be fair I very use the side stand, when I tried the side stand with the bike on the centre stand it appears there is a bit of lateral movement around the bolt which probably means that the bolt hole in the frame is worn. I may disassemble it this weekend and have a look.
