yeah, actually the ones above are specifically for a bike we have here at the house. My oldest son's KTM 250 is in the shop.. Going to go out and take some measurements from his OEM kick stand.

Sweet.
I'm definitely awaiting your results, for when my bike arrives.

solved!! Thanks for the brainstorming gasgasman.

So I pulled off my kids kickstand from his 250xcf-w right away realized it's the exact same design as the gasgas. Literally all the mounts etc are identical. Popped out the bushing and used his collar bolt. viola works awesome. And just for fun, I put mine on his and left it that way. He's going to be pissed when he goes to move his bike. ..

KTM OEM Parts here, looks like KTM used the bushing from 08 - 17 so should be able to get them at any orange shop in town.

note the whole side stand is not needed, simply the bushing and the bolt. the side stands are identical sans the foot color.

Perfect! Now future GG owners can keep their front teeth a while longer. I had a good smack in the jaw from one of my previous GG.

yeah, my youngest son still has nightmares about my 14 Ossa Factory trials bike kickstand. That thing was unforgiving, and was shaped like a dagger. Must've been a joke at the ossa factory.

Excellent job!!!

The KTM bolts were known for breaking.
Here's a kit with just the bolts etc.

I'm not fancying spending money on KTM parts so theoretically could I just cut the bush down?
