If the bike's new to me, it's one of the things I do.
I keep the bolts tight, and annually remove the bushes, inspect regrease/reinstall etc...replace as necessary.

Re: Center Stand sic
If the side stand itself is worn from contacting the frame mount, new bolts and bushes will not be a fix.

I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

What I said. Not worth a pinch a s**t as far as a centre stand is concerned.
