Default Almost did it.....

Thats right.....took the bike to the gas station, pulled of the gas cap and forgot to put the stand down [sm=headbang.gif] caught it just in time before she went over.......

First ride of the season for me up here in MA, just forgot one small thing when i went to fill her up[sm=oopssign.gif]

I was loading mine on the trailer fri. to take to the dealer. Told my 14 yr old to hold the bike while I put the straps on. Turned my back, here comes the bike over on me. Took all I had to get her back up before she hit something. Maybe the bell helped...
