Hey guys - I recently got a Flyscooter's Il Bello, 2008, 50cc (appears that it is made by Znen) and it is missing the center stand. I have tried finding a replacement but can't figure out what type it *should* be. I replaced the stock engine with a GY6 49cc and my life would be a lot easier if I could find a stand! Any tips on which one to buy and where to find it? Thanks so much in advance!

replaced the stock engine with a GY6 49cc Why would a 139QMB center stand NOT work?  |

I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work, but wasn't sure where to find one or what else I needed for it? I noticed that most online specified sizes and/or said a Type 1 or Type 2 spring was required. I just don't want to order the wrong thing and a center stand is definitely new for me!

Most center stands use 2 springs. A small one inside a larger one.

Hey, I did a little looking for you. Check this link right here. You'll need the springs and rubber bumper too, which are there as well. The measurements are there too for you to size it up. |

 Got the center stand in place and lock pin installed... now I can’t for the life of me stretch this spring! Is there a special tool or any tips for getting this thing attached?!?! I’ve tried a screwdriver and it won’t budge. |

Careful leaning into sharp turns now... I took mine off because I would scrape in round-abouts... didn't wanna high-side. Good work with that spring thought!!
