      I just looked back over this and realized that you are "down under".

      Since your side stands are on the other side, it might not be a good idea.

      I ended up draining the oil (seemed safer! hehe)
      Wuss.

      If your side stand was on the proper side, like the rest of the world, it would not have been a problem.

        hahahah! screw you steve!

        R u sure the side stand on bikes is on the right foot side?
        That just doesnt sound right...Infact, I think its right on my bike (on the left foot) because it leans away from the clutch basket...so it should have still worked. Im just a wuss, plus, I've spilled oil on my garage floor once, and i tell you, my ass is still sore!

          Whichever side your stand is on your bike will fall over - everyone knows you guys are upside down and have to wear suction pads on your feet to stop falling off the planet.

          Steve was teasing. All the stands are on the LH side (the same side that everyone should be riding / driving on....but that's another fight).
