Thanks. I figured out the problem. I drove 50 miles to the nearest Kymco dealership. They have 3 Agilities in stock. I took a look at each one.
1. The side stand pivot screw in the schematic is 1/2" longer than the ones on the showroom floor. It it protrudes through the sidestand and causes the spring to kink. I corrected it by grinding the screw to the correct size.
2. The spring(s) in the parts schematic are incorrect. The schematic shows a large spring with a smaller spring inside of it. I received the double spring and it is barely strong enough to keep the side stand up. It folds back down when hitting a bump. The ones on the showroom floor all had a much thicker gold single spring that look like the centerstand spring. I'm not sure if they are the same or not.
3. The plate spring stopper in the schematic cannot be found on any of the scooters at the dealership. I checked both 50cc and 125cc scooters. I'm not sure why it's even in the schematic.
So it looks like I will be ordering another centerstand spring to see if it will hold up the sidestand. Can anyone measure it against their sidestand screw to see if they are the same?
This time I will order from the dealership. I'm a little irritated that I was charged $19.77 to ship a package that was in a clearly reused box that only cost them $5.35 to ship. If I know the shipping charges were going to be that high I would have bought locally. Live and learn.
