How does an officer take off a jiffy stand?
When “taking off,” the officer merely kicks the stand back. A spring pulls it up under the footboards where it automatically locks in place. Should the stand strike an obstruction while it is down, it will not spill the rider, but will merely snap back into place.
Is there a locking function on a jiffy stand?
