Description
Designed specifically for the Kawasaki KLX 230, the ViaTerra Sidestand Shoe improves parking stability on soft and uneven surfaces. By increasing the sidestand’s footprint, it spreads the motorcycle’s weight more evenly, reducing the chances of sinking or tipping over. Precision-engineered using high-quality materials, it’s a practical addition for riders who tour, explore trails, or regularly park off the tarmac.
Extended footprint increases the stand base area by over 2.3 times for improved stability
Even weight distribution prevents the stand from sinking into soft or uneven surfaces
Unique top plate notch design offers a secure grip on the stand’s surface
Construction and Durabliity:
Built to last:
All parts are made using a combination of SAE 304 stainless steel (top plate) and 6061 aluminum (bottom plate) to ensure high wear resistance, corrosion protection, and optimal weight balance.
Loctite thread locker and spring washer are provided to prevent the screws from coming loose due to vibrations.
Stainless steel fittings are used for longer life.
Functional:
Increases footprint area by over 2 times providing better weight distribution, thereby enhances stability of bike on soft surfaces.

Care and Storage:
1. Periodically check the fasteners for tightness, especially after extended rides, and reapply Loctite 243 threadlocker if needed.
2. Clean the sidestand shoe with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly to prevent moisture buildup.
3. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, as these can dull the matte finish and affect long-term durability.
Things to Remember:
1. Ensure the 3mm Allen key is fully seated in the fastener head before tightening or loosening to prevent rounding or slippage.
2. Apply Loctite 243 threadlocker to the fasteners during installation for a secure, vibration-resistant fit.
