Rear wheel to curb.

 

CA DMV says the rear wheel must touch the curb

 

If it is level Iback in. If it is down hill I back in. If it is up hill I go in with the front tire. It ain't easy backing a bike out of a spot if you have to push it uphill backward.

Bill

 

In off thread response ....The kill switch, 'makes you have to be really aware you are about to start your engine'... as voiced by many o f the MSF Instructors in the East.

It becomes a matter of good habits. I even kick up into neutral to start, and have had to rock her a few times. I have started in gear a few times, until I got distracted in conservation at the curb and jumped my bagger out into the street a bit. That's a wake up.

Yah, I've scratched my heada few times about why the h--l did I park down hill.

 

Evil stuff my friend! Bane to bikers the world over, yet strangly small children frolick in it as if it was fun???

Its also how i got my nickname, got caught riding in the snow up in estes park by some of my hog chapter members.
lol our head road captains words were, "What the hell kinda moron is out here riding in the snow??? Oh... Its Mike....."

-Frosty <=== ready for spring...

 

Same as above. Depends on the incline. At Walmart or stores, Park on sidewalk in front. I have caught unruly kids climbing on by bike when I parked it in the regular parking lot. Don't do that no more.
