stand

Is this stand bent or not? the scooter would rock back and forth. I know the feet were worn. Want to make sure the left side as you look at the pic is correct.

Thanks

I think one leg is different to clear the exhaust. Lambretta stands are not meant to lift a wheel in the air, they just stop it from falling over.

The stand looks about right.

Most issues with stand rocking are related to where the stand-hooks clamp through the frame cross member. Often, the bolts will start to pull through the crossmember. With age, it all starts to get a bit ugly, and repair usually involves heating, welding, grinding and painting.
