Why is everyone picking on the man? I think it's a good solution. We don't all have to do things the same way and use the JotaJoe design. Corn's mounting will work perfectly well and won't rotate on the bolt. The brake pedal stop will prevent it rotating under load as he showed in his picture in post #49. The only load in the other direction is gravity, so it won't rotate as long as the bolt is tight. It's a big bolt and can be done up bloody tight, and the serrated face on the footrest boss will help lock it in position (looks like the plate is aluminium so the serrations will make indents). Nobody moans about the footrests having only one bolt when they're fixed to that mounting. The 15mm thick plate should be sturdy enough for a single mounting bolt. It's unlikely to bend unless the bike is hit by a truck while it's on the side stand, in which case a wonky stand would be the least of his worries.

Hi Dellortoman, i did not feel picked at all, i guess it was courious discussion. But you described it well. Thank you.
I am going t add a small screw at the brake lever stop. I show a picture when done. If the big footpeg nut is going to get loose, then gravity, as you already described will turn the unit down. This wont happen when fixed through the stop with a screw in addition. And, you are right, the plate is aluminium and has already dents from the footpeg serration.
Cheers and merry chrismas

Hey,
hope all of you had a nice chrismas. Here are the last pictures from the side stand. Now as anounced with two screws. One nut of the sidestand which is exponated is touching the frame behind the plate. So the plate wont turn in any direction.
