Kickstand Pads
BadAss Moto kickstand pads keep your bike stable when the ground doesn’t. If you’ve ever watched a kickstand sink into hot asphalt, soft dirt, gravel, grass, or sand, these motorcycle kickstand pads are the simple fix: more surface area, more grip, less tip-over risk.
Why riders use kickstand pads
- Prevents sinking: adds a wider footprint for soft or hot surfaces.
- More stability: reduces lean angle changes caused by uneven ground.
- Fast deployment: drop it, park, ride.
Built for real parking conditions
- High-impact ABS plastic: durable for daily use and rough lots.
- Tether hole: easy to lift/pull out, and easy to attach a lanyard.
- Compact carry: toss it in a pocket, bag, or under-seat storage.
How to use a motorcycle kickstand pad
- Stop where you want to park and scan the surface (soft dirt, gravel, hot asphalt = use a pad).
- Place the pad where your kickstand foot will land.
- Lower the kickstand onto the pad and verify the bike is stable before walking away.
Fit & compatibility
These kickstand pads are designed to work with most motorcycles that use a standard kickstand foot. If your bike has an oversized aftermarket kickstand foot, confirm the footprint will sit flat on the pad.
Popular use cases
- Parking lots in summer heat (asphalt softening)
- Gravel driveways and trailhead parking
- Grass at events, rallies, and campgrounds
- Sand, dirt, and uneven shoulder pull-offs
Kickstand pad FAQs
- Do I need a kickstand pad? If you park on hot asphalt, gravel, grass, dirt, or sand even once a week, it’s worth it.
- Will it scratch my kickstand? Normal use shouldn’t—just make sure the pad is placed flat and free of debris.
- Can I leave it on the ground and ride off? Don’t—always pick it up before riding.
