A bike can still be dropped using the waddle method. All it takes is one small puddle or slippery spot to step on and down it goes. Unfortunately, a lesson learned that resulted in a cracked fairing on my mint Repsol CBR1000RR.

As a small girl with a relatively heavy bike. I always put the kickstand down, walk around the bike and tilt it a little towards me on the other side. The Kickstand is high up in the air and doesn't bother me while moving the bike. If it tilts towards me I can catch it early enough. In the unfortunate event, it falls to the other side my kickstand saves my bike from falling over. Since I do it like that I never had it fall over. 6 Years and counting :)

For us shorter folks, it’s easier with method 2 to grab both bars and lean the bike against your hip slightly. Or grab part of the frame or similar towards the back of the bike. Just laying your hand on the seat doesn’t give you a lot of leverage if it starts to fall.

You should use your foot to apply pressure forward on the kickstand when doing the “kickstand turn”. This way it helps insure that your kickstand doesn’t fold in while pivoting.

Another useful maneuver is dragging the rear tire around. Holding the bike while standing next to it, lock the handlebar and grab the tail section of the seat. Lean the bike toward yourself pretty far and you can drag the back end, pivoting on the front tire. Works well on loose or smooth surfaces but does take some muscle.

We spent about 1 to 2 hours just moving the bike around like this at the MSF class. Mainly using the kickstand down "technique". Instructor told us to pick a different bike every so often during that particular class to get used to different weight so that we'd have an idea on how to handle diffrent kinds of bikes. I've never dropped my 390 Duke and can move it around the garage with ease and confidence.

I love and have been using the kickstand pivot method for 20 years. Before trying this, inspect your connecting point for the kick stand. Some are just not strong enough. I've personally had it go bad, and I've seen it go bad. It's never been the kick stand that failed, its always been at the mounting point. I've seen cracked engine block bosses, bent/broken mounts, even a twisted frame tube. Again, I use this technique but it comes with vigilance and judgement.

I'm a shorter/smaller rider and have a 450 or so pound Versys 650, aka Yam's favorite motorcycle, and find that it's better to stand and hold from the right side of the bike with the kick stand down. That way I have the front brake in hand, can catch the bike if it tips toward me, and don't have to worry as much about it falling away from me since the kickstand will catch it as well. PS: Why can't New Yorkers like myself participate in the giveaway?

It promotes gender stereotypes and while getting the door for anyone is nice, I like the idea of people being able to take care of themselves. Maybe instead of getting the door for "a lady" ahem. Maybe get the door for some kindly elderly folks, or handicapped individuals who have daily struggles. That's all I'm saying. Back to your original thought. I'm not sure if many chicks are impressed by a guy moving the bike, short of him probably picking the damn thing up. Some chicks are into that crap lol.

I have more strength in my legs to prevent the bike from falling toward me then to prevent it from falling away from me. Plus you are on the side of the front break if It wants roll away from you.

When pushing next to the bike I like always having a tiny amount of pressure on the front brake. Pull the lever just enough that it would light the brake light if the bike were on but doesn't prevent you from moving it. I don't know why, but I find it easier to go from a little brake to a little more brake than going from no brake to a little brake. And grabbing too much front brake while not on the bike is highly likely to end up with the bike on the ground.

I've worked at a shop for 8 years and I don't kickstand pivot bikes if I can avoid it. Seen to many bent and janky kickstands, too many missing bolts or with incorrect hardware, aluminum kickstands mounted to engine cases, lowered bikes with badly rewelded kickstands, and other iffy situations. Yes, it can be fine as long as the steel kickstand is in decent shape but its my paycheck on the line so I just drag the rear. Plus I work on about 50% cruisers anyway.

Ive done the kickstand pivot in a parking spot when two roadkings parked behind my ninja 650. I didnt want to risk scatching the chrome of two hefty leather daddies. Also did it on accident while using the kickstand for popping the bead during a tire change.

2nd technique should be in gear so you can use the gear as a brake in case it starts to roll away on a hill. If not, you might jam on the front brake and dump the bike.

A friend used to do Kickstand turns on his KTM SM990 - The welds at the kickstand hinge bracket slowly weakened then cracked causing the bike to fall over onto others nxt to it, while parked one fine day I guess that method works best when the surface friction is not too high, i.e. mb on loose sand (which brings abt other problems/issues) 😅

Hello Yammie Noob, 2 weeks ago I got a 2015 W800 in Mint Condition, not ridden it yet as the weather where I am has been bad/good/bad etc. As I haven't ridden any Bike in over a decade and am small, moving it around to start with was scary as fuck. If/when I drop this stunning Bike I am going to cry like a Baby. Thanks for the tips, will stick with Option 2 thank you. Thanks for what you do, need all the Tips I can get at the moment & yes I did re-buy a Twist of the Wrist, I need all the of The Knowledge I can get at the moment :)

Good video Yams, we literally have to do the standing and holding method that you demonstrated as part of our Mod 1 test in the UK. We have to maneuverer the bike using this method from one "parking bay" to another. I am surprised that it isn't in the American motor bike licence test.

Didn't even think about the kickstand method. I had to move my bonneville up onto the 3" curb in my garage to bring another vehicle in. Muscling up each wheel onto the curb wasn't my favorite activity of the snowpocalypse.

One easy way to put your bike in a tight space without you being on the side or on top of it is to walk it backwards holding it up from the handlebars from the front of the bike. This is best suited for backing your bike into a space with the kickstand already down (as you're walking backwards, the kickstand may scrape but won't come up)

Couldn't help but notice the Porter Cable pancake compressor under your workbench there. For the love of God, invest in an ultra-quiet air compressor! It will change your life. It doesn't really matter which brand you use, but I use a California Air Tools 8010 and it's so quiet you can use it indoors without hearing protection. I'll never go back to one of those loud-ass pancake compressors.
