CHROME Side Stand (KICKSTAND) VESPA GT GTS GTV Aftermarket Buzzetti Sidestand

Aftermarket chrome side stand (KICKSTAND) kit for the 2003-2013 GT, GTS, and GTV series Vespas.

Since these sidestands do not have a "kill switch" it will spring back up automatically. They are self-retracting and will not stay in the lock down position if it is not resting on the ground. 

Made in Italy by Buzzetti, the best Italian side stand company of all time.

The 200, 250, and 300 cc Vespas can be a little tricky to get up on to the center stand. This sidestand makes it much easier. Just kick down the side stand and be on your way. Great for shorter or smaller riders to use while getting on and off the scooter, even if you are still planning on using the center stand. The sidestand is used as an alternative option to the center stand. Installing a handy sidestand does not require the removal or effect the operations of the standard center stand.

For most 2014-2017 models the upper spring attachment point was no longer included on the frame.  It's best to check first to see if its there and if not you will need one of the brackets part# 1C000550 or 1C000368.

Installation difficulty: - Easy with basic tools

TECH TIP - This SIDESTAND installs with common sense and basic tools, however reference # TOOLSPRING , will make the job much easier and safer. The special hooked spring installation tool will keep a rogue spring from flying across your garage or from taking out your eye and leaving yourself blind ;). Total installation time shouldn't exceed 15 minutes. Make sure to use a high quality grease with a viscosity similar to the grease used by ScooterWest's service department (reference # GREASE).

**Disclaimer** Sidestands are less stable than centerstands. The Vespa sidestands don't lock in the down position. You also need to make sure your scooter is parked on stable and flat ground when the side stand is in use. When used with common sense they are very handy to have.
