MX60 sidestand fix

When I first got my MX60 I felt that the stand leg did not come down far enough and that unless the scooter was on a slope with the back down to hold the stand down it would roll off the stand.

So I checked out my angle grinder wheel for size and found it would fit in nicely:


allowing me to grind a little off that pin.

So I took the stand off, mounted it in a clamp and carefully ground and inspected in stages.


when I was satisfied enough was offm I could then rotate where I ground off to allow the leg to move further forward. I used a pair of small vice grips to grasp and rotate the pin (I ground it from the left side so have rotated it around 180 degrees).

So now it is more reliable.


a cheap fix and now it works better.
