    Do not weld a plate on but measure the sidestand foot and make a plate to encompass it. Then when it comes time to sell it is near enough standard.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    If it's not attatched, sooner or later I will leave it behind somewhere. A welded plate was the solution for me. About a 4" diameter circle works fine.

    Split Tennis ball pushed over original foot works well for me
