I have an early frame with the notoriously short side stand.  Once the concentric holes in the arm and bracket had worn oblong from a million kicks, I just bent it back with a few hammer hits, then drilled the oblong pin holes back to round for slightly larger pin.  I turned the new pin on the lathe and it seems back to normal again..... (slightly short, so I do the same dance Kommando does when I park it. I look at which way the parking area slopes and use the slope to my advantage)
