Super 8, 150cc kick start

[andrito]

Has anyone noticed that you can't use the kick start unless the scooter is on the center stand?  If the scooter is not on the  center stand, the tab on the center stand mechanically interferes with the kick start!   What kind of an engineering is that?

Superb  engineering!!!!! Forces  use of  a  stable  platform on  which  to  kick start (Im sure you  would complain if  your  foot  slipped  and  you  dumped  the bike  causing  body  damage) and  eliminates  any  chance of  forward  movement of  the  machine  due  to  kicking  action...Theres isnt a  manuel  clutch  or  gearshift to disengage  the transfer of  wheel  spin  due  to  the kicking  action  which  spins the  crankshaft...
