Make sure the stand is going all the way up as well. I've had the exact same situation only to find the stand did not go up all the way.
YES.
The tendency, on many bikes including the CB, is for the side-stand to not always flop up to completely retracted. It'll hang up halfway, especially if there's dirt or road muck or if the pivot is dry and needs grease.
Make sure it's up.
If that's not it: Can you put it in 2nd and not kill the engine? If you cannot, probably it's a bad or misadjusted side-stand safety switch.
