    I learned the parking on a slope lesson with my 2013 full Wing. Fell over almost in slow motion as it rolled off the stand while idling in my slightly sloped driveway. The full Wing is really heavy to pick up. I have layed the F6B on it's side to change the rear tire and it was much easier to lift.

    I never park nose-down

    Never having owned a bike with reverse, I have gotten into the habit of never parking with the nose pointed downhill. One side benefit is one also avoids rolling off the side stand. Sometimes old habits are good habits

    When I had Progressive Lowering Monotubes installed, I ended up removing one inch from my kickstand as it was sitting neutral and a slight wind would have blown it over!!!
