Can anyone recommend a good one?
I'm tired of dumbasses with bad attitudes offering sloppy service whilst selling overpriced Vietkong crap!

Ooooh a side stand. Yes mines a buzzetti standard one for that 80's look.
Beware of an oily engine, don't leave it on tickover on the sidey |

So I phoned PSN whenst he replied that he did have said SM100 in stock ready for pick up. I enquired as to what time he would be departing his premisses on a friday eve. He replied 5pm. As I finnish my employment for the weekend at 5pm it was a little late for me. He said he would wait in for me untill I arrived and collected the item. It took me about 25 minutes to arrive and true to his word he was there waiting. Five stars for that man Andy. Dontyaknow ![]() |

The stand arrived yesterday, I've offered it up and it looks like it will cause some rather extreme scooter leanage. As I'm not sure I can handle all that attitude I'm going to modify how it's mounted.
Will report back (BTW This is a consequence of putting a p200 with a simioni in a rally frame. ie. center stand hitting exhaust) |

All fitted, I'll post some pics soon. I ended up fitting it to the opposite side, it looks weird pointing forward but it is more stable.
