Sorry to hear this happened to you. Glad the damage wasnt worse. I keep my bars turned to the left, I never felt safe having them to the right.

Here's a thought...

I screwed together a stack of 2x4s and a 1x so that they just slide under the frame. :D
Keeps the bike almost straight up, handy for washing and checking the oil, would probably save your from the "flat tire topple".:eek:

Just my $ .02

Happy Motoring!:2thumbs:

mjsk9, Condor makes a specific chopper cradle for their chock, that is what you would need.

PETER my friend I will make it a point to do a little white touch up to your trailer, I love that thing, it's what my wife refers to as the gift box for my diamond ring.

And yeah guys I have chocks in the trailer but mine is in and out on a regular basis, so chocking and strapping just to be parked for a day isn't real practical. I have my trailer pulled in forward with the door so I can drive right in, the bike stays in there all the time. What I need to do is figure out why the hell I can't keep air in the damn tire, it is flat every two weeks or so. Just like my last tire. Anybody else have problems with leaks. No obvious damage or holes that I can find. Checked the valve stem for tightness, maybe I should just have the stem replaced. dunno, but the pump it up everytime is getting old.

Glad there wansen't any damage to the Dog. I always wonder'd about those short
peg style kick stands. They really don't seem very stable no matter what the situation is. I've read a few posts about the same exact thing happening to other members here.
I keep my bike on my table lift mainly cause theres no room in the garage to keep it anywhere else. Front tire is in the vise - if on the lift for any lengty of time > Fat jack
under the frame.
I bet your tromatised more than anything else - the dreams will eventually subside : )
Sending 1000 sheets of bubble wrap your way - careful they will stck to the pipes when hot.
Thanks for sharing !
