<p>A side-stand for a motorcycle wherein an auxiliary member is provided at one side of the side-stand in a length which stretches fairly beyond the contact surface of the side-stand when the motorcycle is set upright for running, whereby, even if a rider forgets to retract or level the side-stand, frictional contact between the bottom tip end of this auxiliary member and the ground surface causes the side-stand to be retracted automatically while running.</p>
