One thing that should be considered is how these aftermarket stands attached. In some cases, they use a clamp around the header pipe which then ends up bending the pipe. Consider something that uses a different method of stabilizing the stand.
In general, the sidestand should be used only for light duty, maybe holding the bike while you transition in/out of the garage. In no way does the sidestand support the bike for starting, etc. Too much stress would be put on it. I wouldn't even think sitting on the bike while on the sidestand is a good idea. IMO.

Fast. Neat. Average. Friendly. Good. Good.
The one I have and like a lot
Bob has a small machine shop. His contact details are:

Calling works best. He's old school - when I bought mine, he sent it and told me to either send it back if I didn't like it or send him payment. I think I paid $145 for it.
Highly recommended.
