Thanks for the tip, it looks easier that way then trying to he-man it or he-women it.

Very useful information.....hopefully I dont need to use it anytime soon!!

Thats pretty good stuff. Although you know us guys, when we did drop our bikes, we turned into He-Man for a few minutes and just bent down and picked it right up. Then after the adrenaline wore off we started griping about how heavy the damn thing is and why our back hurts

i havent experienced the back problems yet..... knock on wood

how to pick up your motorcycle -

1) buy it a beer
2) tell it that "it's a pretty motorcycle"
3) gently brush it's lines with your fingers.
4) turn it on
5) ride it.

I like that one Andy...... I have never had to pick mine up YET and do not really want to, I have been lucky I guess...

Awesome! There have been a couple of times I could have used this!

[elc487]

wish i had read that yesterday. Dropped bike on the way to the shop. Cursed and then proceeded to he-man it. Did bend at the knees mostly though.

came in handy today, I was trying to back out of my garage with my roomies truck in the way and I leaned over a bit too much to the left to to clear a marker and...slowly goes down...used the technique and went right up real nice and easy!

haha i completely agree w/ this. one day i was messing around in the garage moving stuff around and accidentally knocked the bike over. most the time its not that heavy when you are really mad. unfortunatly in this case i had sandals on and by the time i got some shoes all that built up anger that assists w/ picking it up was gone.

I have heard of this way to lift the bike. It sounds like a good one.

[SOUPDADY]

Nice very Helpful for smaller ryders and the ladies

[hotrodder000]

most people try to pull up facing the bike while straining there back. of course doing it this way leaves a chance for the bike to tip over the other way lol.

[katitoy]

Awesome. Never knew this technique till now. I had a kawi before and dropped it on its side (still sleepy that morning just excited to just hop on it). Lifted it up facing the bike and there goes my back pain.

Never dropped my KAT and hopefully will never use this technique. hahaha!

[96katana96]

I say leave it there and run home crying. j/k good website I wondered how to pick my bike if I (hopefully I won't ever have to ) dropped it.

[ICEG]

hehehehe although the kat is heavy i can pick it up no problem
i picked up the front end and heldit ther for 15 minuts while my dad took of the front tire (it had cracks all around it so i t neaded to be changed )
