Kick Stand Pad - anyone else use one accassionally?

[the Ferret]

Pucks are a must in the summer in humid climates. Don't want your bike going over because the stand sunk into pavement.

Never had a m/c fall over because the side stand sunk into the pavement - but it should have fallen over! (the list was severe). Instead, it was almost impossible to get the stand out of the pavement.

Last fall I took my family doctor over to Marietta Ohio to show him some great roads. Came out of the hotel one morning and the FJR was listing pretty badly. Didnt think it was warm enough for the sidestand to sink into the parking lot, so I didn't use a sidestand pad which I had with me, but it was down at least an inch and a half. If I had come out a couple hours later, I'm pretty sure Big Blue would have been laying on her side.
