Welcome here! To say it short, both are correct and the right one in accordance with state law.
One country requires a cut off, another does not.


Well here in Malta I’m taking the scooter in and the mechanic is going to cut off the bolt that stops it staying down so that should sort out the problem

Hello everyone I’m new to this forum so be kind to me please.

I’m an old fart 77 living in Malta and spend  some time in Cyprus during the year. I sold my last scooter Honda SH 300 as it was getting too fast for my brain to handle and too heavy to push around the garage.
I sold it to a nice young man in Cyprus who couldn’t believe the like new condition it was in even though it was 13 years old with 6000 miles on the clock, I bought it new in 2011.
So I decided to buy 2 brand new smaller scooters,  Kymco 200 S, one for Malta and one for Cyprus that would be fast enough and light enough for my poor old back.
OK the Question…..the one I bought in Malta, the kick stand won’t stay down when I push it down, I asked the dealer why? He said it’s a safety feature so you can’t ride off with it down even though you can still start it when it’s on the side stand.Ok the one in Cyprus, this one ( identical model) does stay down when I kick it down and also starts when down so no cut off switch on both. So guys and girls which one is correct please
