ive got a story and I am for it. I came out of my local taco mac on saturday. I had my bike on a hill sloping slighty forward not a lot. I have had my bike ponting forward like this numerous time with the same situation. I go to my bike and take it out of gear. The nuetral light clearly indicated. The bike sat for a minute I was talking to my buddy. I go to turn on the bike and oooooo shiot!!! It started rolling forward as i started it. It started tipping over. I basicly got my whole body under the bike to save it as much as I could. It eventually got the ground but my body stopped most of the fall. No damage done just my pride. That kinda thing just makes me mad and it is my fault though for not taking the extra step for worst case scenario. Im guessing I hit a false nuetral but who knows. I took my anger out on our nightly twisties routine. Ok Im done ranting now you can go back to your lives. I will make minute donations if you need them added back your life HAHA.

If you went to start it I'm assuming you pulled in the clutch. Then it wouldn't matter if it was in gear or in neutral, it'll roll. Also sometimes when my bike's cold and the oil is thicker, it can try to creep forward when I start it up. Barely noticeable, but it's there.'01 TL1000R

That's why I grab the front brake every time I start the bike anywhere but home (different start-up routine) . Make DAMN sure that bike won't go anywehre till I'm good an ready . Lesson learned maybe ? At least you didn't scratch up nothin . Imagine how pi$$ed you'd be THEN .
