This technique is really fukken useful. And real easy on an FXR. I use it to turn it around in the bloody uni carparks with limited space, and also at home to turn it around in the carport
It works in the dirt too
Well, anyone could do that if you used your brain - and swing it on the side stand.......
I'm wondering if it's not really recommended due to the stress placed on the sidestand through the pivot. There's probably quite a bit of technique to it and I certainly wouldn't be rushing to try it with my bandit. But if someone knowledgeable told me it was perfectly acceptable and stands were designed to cope with it then I'd be more inclined to practice doing it. (Maybe I'll give it a go with the ginny - I should be able to manage that wee light-weight! hehehe)
Servicing man servicing, please execute a little pc round here if ya could !!
Eww brain matter on the side stand !!
Perfectly acceptable !!! If you were a gambler !
If ya dont mind rewelding the reweld !
Seen it done a couple of times and seen the stand break once, so haven't bothered trying it !
A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"
Bowls can wait !
