This is what I did as well. Many of the local sponsored bike rides/rallies/poker runs have the motorcycle lawyers giving out bandanas and coasters. A couple years back they had some plastic ones with a hole on one edge; I tied a bit of shot line through the hole and reused a snap hook off one of the dog's leads that she had eaten, and just clip it to my phone cradle.

When not being used, it's just stored in the left glove box along with about a dozen other pucks/coasters/kick-stand pads that I've picked up along the way (and continue to add to the collection any chance I get). In 95 degree weather, parking lots get really soft and when riding with friends I can just hand them out and not worry about getting them back.

Good suggestion. I've picked up several free stands over the years at shows.

Brukus is still offering FREE shipping on all our products within the U.S. and reduced shipping to Canada.

Our KickShoe was brought back by popular demand. No more having to maneuver something under your kickstand on hot asphalt, uneven gravel or soft surfaces.

Looks like a solid product but for $75 to $100 depending on model some may wish to consider an alternative.

For 100 clams it's cheaper to use my helmet!

I use a upside down pick jar lid. the stand will press against the lip of the lid and not allow the stand to slide off.

Default License plate

I use an old license plate from a former car. It is thin enough that it never gets in the way in a bag, it is wide enough that it distributes the weight so you never have to worry about too wet grass and it is large enough that you don't need great aim.
