And an addition to this....if your last main ride was a HD, remember that the side stand on the F6B does not lock in the extended position so the bike can roll forward in neutral on an incline as the side stand folds neatly into place. (Having your front wheel on the edge of a pothole, even though the area is level, counts as an incline). The upside to doing this is you get to test the crash bars which work the charm. I was lucky having forgotten this on a fairly sandy parking area....the paint on the roll bars was just scuffed a bit....the helmet falling off the bike suffered the most damage.
