It worked perfect and was surprisingly easy to install once I figured out the screwdriver trick   |

On the 10" wheel Taotaos, the center stand will scrape in a moderate left turn. I like the centerstand, so...
I replaced the rubber bumper with a carriage bolt with the head having several coats of Plasti-dip on it. (So the stand will go up farther). Ground a LITTLE off the bend where it touches down, and repainted it. Helps a little.
Why? If something drags in a corner and you try to lean farther, it can lever the rear tire off the ground and bad things happen.
