Floorboards are good for one thing!
 
Last night I went out with a friend for a few drinks, I left my cell phone at work so I went back to work. I parked my bike as usual and did the kick stand, I think I was retarded, didn't push the kick stand out far enough. I lay the bike down and the left floorboard flexed and stopped it, thank god there is no damage at all, the floorboard looks fine. It's funny, isn't it? :D

welcome to the club. two types of riders- those who have dropped and those that will. I'm a lifetime member. the worst is when i totally forgot to put down the jiffy!

I did that a month ago, only a scratch on my tailight. Floorboards are good !

I almost did the same thing, but realized it wasn't out far enough in time to stand the bike back up.

What I liked was when my wife was on back and noticed I hadn't put the stand up and was about to drive off. I'm kinda suprised she was paying attention. She may have saved us both a few bruises
