Texting while driving just became a primary offense in NYS; it's also a $150 fine. The problem is that the offender has to get caught first, and I bet that usually happens AFTER something like what happened to your Dad.

Hi bozo47! Not sure where all that negative energy is coming from.

It's good to be us! Happy Summer!!!

Ouch! That adrenaline rush will make you do things without thinking (I gotta get this bike up!). Especially when it's not yours! Grippy boots will avoid the problem next time, and make sure your front wheel is straight when you stop (square the handlebars). Thanks for the feedback; ride safe and have fun.

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic (it's so hard to tell in print!), but just in case you're serious, it's not a big bike, I'm a small person! This bike is only about 550 pounds, but I've done it with a Road King (800 pounds). I'm not saying it was EASY, but that it was possible.

Hey, thanks for the support! I'm glad you found the info interesting and useful. Lots of people have; I know I did, and that's why I wanted to share it with others!

That's a great quote,by the way- I'll have to remember it. IT'S WHAT YOU KNOW AFTER YOU KNOW IT ALL THAT MATTERS

If you drop it on the other side, once you get it up to the balance point (careful not to drop it again!), hold the brake lever and carefully mount the bike. Then you can sit and put the sidestand down as usual.

My dad dumped his while riding. He being was tailgated 1000 feet from stop sign and he went str8 into the ditch it made him nervous. The tailgater was a teenage girl talking on a cellphone -.- she kept on going didnt even stop to help..i hoping they will make a law where you cant talk/text on cellphones while driving.

I made a mistake yesterday by wearing a slippery shoe and i dropped a cruiser after stopping the shoe just slipped, my uncle who's bike it is (a big fella) told me to just pick it up with my thighs and hand while still standing over it.

which actually hurt my back cause i guess with adrenaline rush i just pulled it too quick with my back, this video is very useful.
