Mine sits really well, except on wet ground, then it's like a quicksand scene out of old tv shows. Two beers and I'm rolling out of the chair to stand up as it slowly sinks into the ground. If you've got the "fat feet" things, use them. But they sit surprisingly well.
 
The feet don't look all that widely splayed out to be as stable as you say. I sat on one awhile ago with no beer on board, man, I don't know, I'm 6 ft and 205lbs.
 
I believe by design the angle and length legs (they are low to ground) the feet don’t need to be far apart and yes very stable.

I have tried REI Models similar in design except a little taller, likewise I’m 235 and 6’1”, they were very wobbly - not haaaapening.
 
We have begun tossing these chairs into our vehicle for fishing or other excursions - same features of light weight and super small disassembled and packaged size appreciated on more than just the motorcycle.
