Unhappy How to drop a rkc

1-pull up to gas pump
2-put kick stand down
3-start to dismount but decide to roll up to next pump
4-get off bike not realizing kick stand scrapped ground
and was not fully down
5-get off bike and try to hold up as it lays down
6-watch other customers look and think what an ahole

I've did it 3 times, with My UC, Was'nt used the heavy weigh Cruisers. I dropped it the 3 times it the first 6mo of ownership. Have had it almost 4yrs. You kinda get used to it after awhile. But Who knows, sometimes these bikes seem to have a mind of thier own.
