Not easy?! I'm having trouble not throwing the bike around anymore. It's become second nature to put that thing up. I never leave it on the side stand anymore.

After two attempts. I got it. Thanks"Knowledge comes from finding the answers, yes, but understanding what the answers mean is what brings wisdom. Men who didn’t understand the difference have been the ruin of some of the world’s greatest civilizations." - Lionel Luthor

yes...you can use either foot...but for some people...using the left foot FORCES them further back to help "lift" the tail, as opposed to "pull" the bars (which is WRONG). It also helps align the spine so you don't twist your back.
someone mentioned what exactally "rocking" does...it helps some people to feel the two feet.
Remember...as long as you are pushing down...the bike will not fall over, as long as the ground is level.
If you can still not get your bike up.....please post up...SOMEONE will probably be close enough to show you...it is not impossible.

On the very bottom center of of the bike by the kickstand. You can't miss it. It is longer on the left side too. I was fighting with the damn thing to get it to go up until I read this.

Originally posted by LordKerythJust curious, but where exactly would the center stand be if I had one? Pretty sure that when I bought it, there was no center stand. Either that, or I am very confused.
Personally I wouldnt part with mine, its way too handy for maintanence and detailing.
