Abstract: A support pad or standpad for maintaining a two-wheeled vehicle having a kickstand in the upright position when placed between the two-wheeled vehicle kickstand and a soft supporting surface. The standpad consists of a thin planar member having flat surfaces. Means for reinforcing the planar member are distributed throughout the member. An aperture is cut through the thin planar member and is connected to the periphery of the thin planar member by a slit. The aperture and slit allow the standpad to be stored on a convenient cable or loop such as the speedometer cable or clutch cable on top of the transmission or a cord or leather loop conveniently located on the two-wheeled vehicle. During normal operations on soft supporting surfaces, the standpad is placed between the vehicle's kickstand and the soft supporting surface to prevent the kickstand from penetrating the soft supporting surface and thereby preventing the vehicle from toppling over.
