Probably as it is a stand, or prop, which allowed a motorcycle to be parked, and which was kicked (or at least moved by the foot) to return the stand to its position for riding (and also to deploy it in the first place).
Note that the term was not used much in the British Commonwealth, because of possible confusion with the kickstarter, the term "sidestand" was much more commonly used as it was mounted on one side (usually the left) on the frame. Many bikes have another stand underneath which is called the centrestand, slung from both frame tubes and which holds the bike up vertically (as opposed to a sidestand which gives the parked bike a distinct lean).
