Kick starting Classic Vespa

When I have needed to kick start a Vespa, even when much younger, I have always had to put the machine on the center stand. I have never been able to start one this way. Has anyone?

Always start it this way, never on the stand. Half because I don't want to slowly damage the stand or frame, and half because I use a side stand most of the time. (my side stand is heavily strengthened to reduce any frame twist)
