Pulling up to a pump at a station being cut-off by a car and manuvered toooooo slowly to turn at the pump....GRABBING FRONT BRAKE WITH THE BARS TURNED,,,,, Over I went NO forward motion but the bars Turned and Brake took me down... Being Hot and Tired at the time was no help either....
ME,,,,RED Faced and looking Bad... Standing there, then turning Off the key switch.... Just Looking at the bike on its left side... CRUM.....:bigsmiley19:
A rather heavy short gal and her light weight weight husband, Jumped out of their car and said : Need Help?
Yes I Do... I pointed out on my 09 FLHR the rear Crash Bar to pull straight out on while I lifted the bike by the other and keeping the handle-bars straight.... VOLLA: Popped right up.
NO Damage to the bike at all BUT maybe added scratches to the bottom of the Crash-Bars FROM PREVIOUS Similar events WE Never admit to... EH?:rofl
