I have never forgot to put my kickstand up/down. I have never slow speed set my bike down. Hold on a second, my nose is growing long, I need to put it back. 
Wet grass, oil and loose gravel are your best friends, oop's, there it goes again.

At least you went ahead and got it out of the way, lmao. Dust yourself off and keep riding man, it happens to all of us. My last bike (1200 sporty) I was riding my new toy in the yard after enjoying a few of my favorite beverages,lol, anyway, when I stopped and put my foot down my flip flop slipped on wet grass, down she went. I picked her up, put the stand down, while I was doing that, it went past center and down it went on the right side, lmao... Got her up and while I was backing her in the garage, she fell into my toolbox on the right side again, DAMN 3 TIMES IN 15 MINUTES (yes I felt like a dumbazz) Moral of the story is, DONT enjoy a few beverages of your choice and ride in wet grass in your flip flops and shorts, try to pick it up ALONE and back it into the garage ALONE while you are 3 sheets to the wind, lmao... All in all, only nicked up brake and clutch levers and a rear turn signal plastic housing popped off, put it right back on. So we all have been there done that. Now with my new big boy bike I NEVER move it while I am drinking, if I do, its to back it 15 feet into its parking spot in the garage with the ole ladys help. It will be alright man, ride on.
