I'm trying to buy a kickstand tray online and cannot seem to find what I need. I may be using the wrong words to describe what I want. Its to keep the kickstand from sinking in the mud.
So terms to try and online website address anyone?

While I agree with the sentiment of a can - you might want to use a regular soda can in the event you ever get pulled over.

In Jersey they hand them out when you complete your MSF BRC! Was glad to have it a couple of weeks ago when I had to park on some lawn and it was soft...

the owner of the shop down the street comes out and gives you a piece of sheet metal when you pull up
anything that spreads the force out from the stand foot will work, it doesn't even have to be completely rigid, grab a coaster next time you're at a bar
