Okay - laying a $20k plus motorcycle down on its side just to practice picking it up isA BIT overboard.

 

I've done that, pulled up next to a buddy, stopped and just forgot. When it got to the point of no return I just let it down easy. That is the perfect reason for leaving the engine guard on.

Don't worry about it, at least that's out of the way, and no harm done.

 

Summa Bitches are heavy aren't they?????????[sm=boohoo.gif][sm=imsorry.gif]

 

Been there done that never agin I hope.

 

Almost did it--got off and went, oh $h^t, then got back on before the weight of it brought me over--won't do THAT again !

Hey Harleybodei, off the subject, but I have been coveting the wing graphic in your sig pic--want to blendthe wings withanother few graphics I like for a possible tat--has a wee bit of tribal, which is what I want. By chance, do you have a clean, better copy you'd consider sharing? If not, that's cool too. Thanks much, A.

 

Embarassing, ain't it? Not that I would have any experience doing something like that.

 

My harley was my first bike, so i knew nothing about them when i went to the dealer to look. the saleman let me sit on a bike and i didn't know how thie jif stand worked. i got off, the stand wasn't in the slot. Lucky for me the saleman cought the handel bars. He then showed me how the jiffey stand worked and told me how to pick up a bike. That was Emmbarassing as hell but i learned and have never got off my bike without that being the first thing that popped in me head. After i signed the papers he didn't seem to be too worried about it. untill i walked out the door i figure.

 

Yep, you only do it once. Same here did it once and never forgot it since.

 

Almost did that one time, caught it right before the point of no return. Glad you are OK

 

Me too. Rode all day, pulled up and just about got off the bike with the stand still up. My friend saw me heading his way so he gave me a mighty shove. We saved it, but I won't repeat it I hope.
