Glad it all worked out. You really have to be careful and not park in a place that leans to the jiffy stand side either it is tough to get up sometimes as it is to back up if the front is downhill. Not that I would know?

Another good reason to get the Harley remote garage door opener.
Not that it matters now but could you have possibly applied the front brake to stop the foward motion?

Aftermarket. There are several good options. Do a search on this forum and you'll get a ton of good info. I personally prefer the Wheeldock brand.

hey pled55 if you think it is moving chances are it is. I have caught myself grabbing for anything on the bike because it moved ever so slightly after I got off. It makes your heart skip a beat.......

Glad to hear you saved it, I had a similar experience. I have a display stand on my EGC and had the bike on it while I was mounting a luggage rack on the tour pak. My driveway has a very slight incline going into my garage & that was where I was doing the work. As I was laying out the screw pattern I noticed the tour pak lid was moving away from me. When I realized what was happening I dropped everything & managed to grab the bike just in time. That was a rush I didn't need, I moved the bike onto the level garage floor & finished the luggage rack.

I have a 2 car garage and I park the UC in between the vehicles. Fits just right. Well, one day I go out to move the bike back a foot or two so I could work around in front of it and while sitting on the bike I put the jiffy stand up and moved it back. Went to sit her back on the jiffy stand and quess what, no jiffy stand. Talk about a strain trying to keep the bike from falling against the Truck and not being able to get off of it to lift it back up. Held it for a few minutes while it was starting to slowly touch the truck yelling for someone to come out of the house to help, but no one came. Getting pissed off I lifted it with my left leg and leaning towards the right. Don't want to do that again! Mirror on left side got knocked out of adjustment was all and a small scratch on the truck door.
