Poll: Left foot? Right foot?

**Hitcher** · 22nd June 2004, 15:57

When your cycle comes to a stop, which foot goes to ground?

**vifferman** · 22nd June 2004, 15:59

Whichever one feels like it. I let them sort it out between themselves, and if they can't decide, then I make them both go down, or both stay up.

Hey, thats pretty rude, man. Post thief.

**Motoracer** · 22nd June 2004, 16:00

Which ever one that feels the most appropriate at the time I guess. Am I supposed to be doing it with only one side?

**SpankMe** · 22nd June 2004, 16:07

My legs are too short to reach the ground.

Left foot goes down first while the brakes on. Then both feet down then maybe the left foot goes up to check that we are in first gear or neutral, depending how long I think I'll be stopped for.

Can agree with the indecision of qhich leg, unfortunately both up tends to lead to all down, bike and all!!

By choice I usually put my left foot down, brake is on t'other side although I also put both down at times but rarely the right by itself

Right. Then I can change down and or find neutral and or put the stand down. When all that's done both.

Come on Mr Hitcher.
You've been honored with the 1000th post "flashing cross".
For this honor, we must demanded a 'step up', in the quality of the threads started.
I mean,, really! Which Foot?!!

You can do better than that!

Why not start a thread asking about how Rossi puts his foot down to test the track, while raceing at warp speed? I Saw him doing that when he was on slicks in the rain! Did you see that? Amazing!
That, would be a thread worthy of your "flashing cross"!

**Hooks** · 22nd June 2004, 18:50

it all depends on which way the wind is blowing really !!.....But if I have make a choice then I guess it's the one that doesn't have anything else to do ....

What about asking if anyone slots "N" sitting at the lights or whether they sit there with the clutch in ...........
