Tod,
I think I've got the solution to dilemma. Here's what I did a couple of years ago.
The frame on our bikes has a place to bolt a center-stand onto. Triumph, for some reason, has never offered that option. So, I designed and constructed, using 3/8 inch steel, a bracket in the shape of a Z or an N actually that bolts to that opening and rests on the top of the frame. It's very secure. The other end has a 1/2 hole that holds a Harley(yeah, that's right...they make nice bikes and parts...no Harley bashing from me) 3 1/2in solid, chrome foot-peg extention with a female-end that a beautiful chrome Kuryakyn 3in wide foot-peg bolts into. The pegs end up coming out and located at the rear of the primary cover on the left side and about half way back on counter-shaft sprocket cover on the right side.
This arrangement allows me to stand up and stretch on long rides and is a great place to put your legs if you see a major-league bump headed your way.
And they look fantastic too.
