I believe I can now call myself an "Official" ST Owner! I have joined (reluctantly) the ranks of the TOT group (Yea ME!)
The Munchkin Pillion and I had just checked in to our hotel for the Moonshine weekend. We had parked in front and I needed to move the bike closer to our room.
We mounted up, made a loop around the front entrance and headed for the side parking lot. I was estimating where our room was, so I could park within view of our window. Decided on a spot and stopped, flipped down the side stand and started to dismount the bike when it just fell to the right.
I didn't realize that, although the ground looked level, there was an incline and the position I had stopped at put the uphill on the left....
I ended up jumping off the right side, Bre just rode it out! I was horrified, worried that she may have been hurt. Bre just looked up at me and asked "Why did you do that?".
TOW did it's thing, slightly cracked and scratched but no other damage. I was able to right the bike, moved it to where it would not fall over and continued to unload.
OK, where's my Zippo??
