Easy install
Slides right on side stand. Use lock tight on the set screw or it will loosen up fast. As for use with Kuryakyn floorboards, it will hit against the boards. The solution I used was I placed the fuzzy side of an industrial strength Velcro pad on the under side of the board where the side stand hit it and I had no problems with it. Widens the footprint of the stand enough to make the bike stable in most conditions. |

Black Anodized Sidestand Pad
Firstly anyone ordering from Australia, it took only 9 days from the order date to receiving my order up here in Brisbane QLD. I've been looking for this pad for awhile for my 2013 Goldwing. As most owners would be aware the standard side stand pad is on the small side. Having parked up on gravel on several occasions only to watch the side stand slowly but surely sink. Well this sure won't happen again after fitting the Pad. It's solid, doesn't detract from the look of the bike, is easy to fit. My only issue is that an Allen key should be included with the purchase. Then a 5 star rating would have applied. |

Set screw loosens over time
Bought this in 2010 and it is still on my bike. However, the set screw comes loose often. You'll know it is loose when you raise and lower the stand and can hear the pad loose. I have tried using Loctite on the set screw, however Loctite eventually wears as time goes by. It would be great if the manufacturer had a better way to lock this down onto the stand so that I don't have to keep tightening the set screw. This pad also has some interference when it is in the up position. Interference you will notice when using the OEM foot pad and wearing boots. Other than the set screw problem, this is a good cheap option to have on the kickstand to widen the stand surface when using on multiple surfaces. I've had no problems with this on sand, gravel, or loose pavement. However, on some soft surfaces, for added security, I have placed a piece of wood (shingle) or metal plate under to prevent sinking. |

So far so good
I've had no issues with this piece of equipment so far. Didn't have any problems installing(only took about two minutes)it fit like a glove, and tightened down nicely. Works well on gravel, and other soft surfaces. |

Floorboard trouble
One reviewer says this doesn't work with Kury floorboards. True. The board forces the kickstand down a bit. Some filing on my part allowed it to fit wonderfully. There is the matter of reduced cornering clearance but that is resolving itself as it grinds down. My wife doesn't like the grinding noise so I try to avoid it. Also, as you file it, you find the very nice aluminum look. I removed all the black and have nothing but great comments! Even though it is smaller now it is still plenty large for its intended purpose. Perhaps they should make a model to fit the Kury floorboards! Hint hint... 8000 miles with the pad so far...on many surfaces. Definitely a must have regardless of its drawbacks. |

Side stand Pad - Great on my 2012
It fit on existing stand with precision. No customizing required on my part. Used a little blue Loctite and it was ready to go in no time. I would definitely recommend this based on my experience. |

Wrong Shape
After filing and grinding for 30 minutes I finally slipped the pad on BUT if it sits on all the way it does hit the fairing severely! No Good. It is just too wide at the base. I had to pull it back outwards to keep it away from the bodywork. Now it looks just awful! I will grind the pad to reshape it as far as possible and hope it will fit then without bashing the bodywork. If not I throw it away. My verdict: Good Idea, Bad Design |

Unobtrusive & adds additional surface area to the skinny foot print of the OE stand. Very helpful on those hot summer tar surfaces. |

Easy to install and doesn't hit body work on my 2012. For me it is a must have to increase the footprint of the sidestand to reduce the possibility of it sinking into hot asphalt. I also used loctite to prevent the screw from backing out. |

Seems kinda pricy for what it is.. Easy install. I put loc-tite on the retainer screw. The retainer screw is on the down side when the kick stand when it is in the up position. In theory this will make it easier for the screw to fall out. All-in-all I like it. Looks nicer and is easier than trying to place a foot under the kickstand all the time. I recommend it! |

Took longer to unpack than install. Works great and in this summer heat I don't like worrying about my parking my bike on asphalt for a long time. Figure that the rubbing on leans will shape it to what it should have been then I will repaint. Nothing in life is perfect so it gets 5 stars. Wish Honda would put on a stand foot that truly works. |
