I'm not sure that will be enough to use a sidestand foot.
Do the sidestand modification first and see how much the bike leans.

I used sidstand enlargers on our last two bikes and really liked the convenience but I didn't trust one on the RS.
Like the others I carry a plate in my tank bag. I use a piece of aluminum diamond plate.
There used to be a local guy who made running boards for pickup and he would give scraps to motorcycle riders.

I was questioning the same thing Lee. Will it be enough to use the side stand foot. I don't want to grind off too much that forces the side stand further forward to the point it may be structurally unsafe just to use a footer.

Once we get this done end of next week without the foot enlarger so the bike leans a little more, I may, like you, go back to carrying a plate like I did with the GS.

I used an electrical plate [ think 4 receptacle size ] that's a blank, attached to 550 paracord which I looped onto my left grip so I didn't ride off and forget it on the GS.
