Model: Piaggio Ciao
Part: Key

Would you like to go more vintage and fit a kickstart on your Ciao but don't know how? It's very simple and economical! As shown in the video, unscrew the cap of the plate and insert a new plate (purchased by you) over the original one. Then, take a fine rope or a suitable string of your choice and place it between the two plates. At this point, just pull the string while twisting the throttle to achieve a fantastic kickstart! Decide how to secure the string to your Ciao, perhaps by wrapping it around the handlebars or by screwing a bracket near the handlebars to hold the string in place.
