Thanks! I will try that...I was on the "left side" (or drivers side if talking about a car on US highways, lol) trying this - also same side as the centerstand kickstand is on - but I was using my left foot. I will try the right foot method.

I've also seen people put a scooter on the center stand while they were on their bike...like while straddling it. Does that sound right at all?
