OK, just to verify, the Yuba kickstand works flawlessly. It mounted as if it was designed for the BD and it's just the perfect length too. It's easy to reach with your foot too: I was afraid it would be hidden and hard to access, but that's not the case.

The only problem is that, as I mentioned before, the bags can't be taken off with the deck installed and removing the deck is a bit of PITA. I need to find a way to modify the deck somehow, to raise it, to create a gap between the deck and the v-racks to be able to pull the straps and buckles through. I imagine a situation where I might want to carry something large without the bags, like boxes to UPS or a bike frame.
Man, I can't wait to load those with camping gear and hit the road!
To give you an idea, a set of 700cc wheels in the bag, plenty of room left for more stuff.
