My scooter is missing the center kickstand, which is kind of a pain when it comes to working on it. I found a replacement at Chinese Parts Pro, but I'm not sure what else is missing, or what a complete one looks like. I would assume it needs a spring and a couple bolts to bolt it to the bottom of the engine, but what else? Can anyone take a pic of theirs to show me what it's supposed to look like? This is the one I'm looking at. Thanks. |

Thanks Mike. I think I partially answered my question by looking at lots of pics on Google. Here is a pic of the stand it came with:  And I think the stand I linked to isn't going to work going by the measurements in the picture. My inside spacing is about 4 1/8" and the outside is about 6". I don't think the outside dimension is as important as the inside, though. I don't really want to do any fabricating, but I probably could if I had to. |

Don't forget springs. Without them you just have a limp thing hanging down getting in the way.

I figured I would need one, or some, but I'm not exactly sure which one to get. Most sites have a listing for a few different ones and don't list lengths or specs. I see the bulk of them are single springs, but a couple have what appear to be two springs together; a heavier one with a lighter one inside. Is the lighter one designed to pull on a safety switch or is it for something else? |

I believe there are two “rubber” bumpers that go on there too. They screw onto th flat metal pieces with the single hole in them. Greg  Maybe there’s only one bumper |

All of my scoots have 2 springs. I have no idea why there are 2. Maybe if one fails you have a backup so your center stand won't fall.
