Here's another one for you.I pulled up at a petrol pump and went to put the sidestand down with my foot.The spike with round ball on top of the stand used to deploy it went directly into the heel of my boot which was hollow.I was going over .How I got the boot off the spike I don't know but by now I was half wedged against the pump.Anyway a WOMAN saw my predicament and gave me, this TOUGH,MANLY biker, a hand to get it upright.I only scratched the left side pipe a tiny bit but

I thought the embarrassment would kill me.
