An extendable and retractable support stand for holding a parked vehicle such as a motorcycle, bicycle or similar vehicle which is otherwise unstable in an upright position. The support stand has the ability to be locked into place without the need for fixed locking positions by means of a tilted plate locking mechanism that can be operated by the operator using only one foot irrespective of the orientation of the support stand. The support members may include an outer telescoping member pivotally attach to the vehicle frame, an inner support member, a support pad, a running clutch mechanism that automatically locks the telescoping members, and a refraction spring to automatically return the stand to the minimum length when the clutch mechanism is disengaged.
