Can you get softer stand springs that don’t clatter the rear runners and are easier to push off the stand?

I think you'll find the stand drops down while riding with a softer spring that's if you could find one

Have you got the return rubber on the side stand leg to stop this happening?

If its hard to push your scooter off the stand,it maybe that your stand is to long/it maybe that your stand bolts have come loose,causing the stand and the scooter to sit lower than it should.As for the stand hitting the rear runners,when I push my scooter off the stand I prevent the stand from hitting the rear runners with my foot.

I think that no innocenti stand had the little bit on that a rubber was put over- Its one of the things the Spanish
/Indians improved IMO.
Scootering since 1968.
