R100GS and GSPD sidestand
The factory sidestand on this model is very poor being too long and bendy, unable to support even an unloaded bike. I have fitted a really excellent sidestand from boxxerparts ( Boxxerparts) which is made from tubular stainless steel. This will easily support a fully loaded bike and is fitted to one of the lower engine thru bolts. It doesn't matter if you have crashbars or not, although I had to slightly bend mine to fit afterwards. Although a bit expensive, it certainly does the job. They have lots of other goodies including used parts, as well. Highly recommended.
