I've seen those, pretty cool. I like Jon Cain's solution. It's adjustable and reversible.
It's bolted to the sidestand and I don't have to reach down or more commonly, forget it at home.

I see one advantage to the parking puck.  If you have ever had a bike fall over because of the hot asphault and the side stand penetrating the surface of the asphault, the parking puck increases the surface area of the sidestand contact and would prevent this. But you still have to bend over.

Yep, this is very true. The larger puck footprint will be safer......but you still have to bend over......so is it really safer?

Bending over at a FJ rally where Klavdy is in attendance, is not what I call "safe" I'm just saying.....

i have my fj (and fjr) raised up with different dogbones, and thus it leans quite a bit.  i use a block of wood with a hole drilled thru it, with a long piece of leather tied in a loop.  no bending.  i laughed when i watched the video.  there's no way in God's green earth i'm a gonna be able to bend over and pick up that puck on my fj.  just my thoughts.
