Getting this thing on the center stand is a _)*+(_*()*+)(U*!!!

This is really funny, This guy up in Canada asked a question about putting his bike on the stand and you guys manage to make it last 4 friggin pages long and he never once comes back and replies..........
Priceless I say fucking Priceless. I can only imagine what fun tim would of had with this last friday.

Gunny!

I can't believe the life of this stupid thread. I guess winter is settling in in many places already.

Though the vid of the guy sitting and putting it up on the C-stand was cool. And for the record, the FJR is easy to get on the C-stand. It's all in the technique.

What dates are you talking about OCfjr?

Getting the bike on the centerstand while straddled is easy, but it helps a-lot

to be in the 250lbs and up range.

Sorry to dredge this thread up again. I just found it ironic that after so many years of telling people never to pull up (only step down) that in a panic I did exactly that and strained my back.

First post was August 20th. The thread doesn't have 4 pages of legs, it was brought back from the dead for a second round, in which no one actually needed help getting it up on the center stand. Just a commentary on how we can screw up and hurt ourselves even when we know the correct technique.

And the post that everyone thinks should die, lives on

Yes, winter seems like it is here already :angry2:

The little basturd has been up to 125mph, and has done about 8000 miles on my bikes.

Amazing...does he always look out or does he duck inside for naps?

I'm decidedly made of fail when it comes to putting my '06 up on the center stand. I can pop my Dad's GL1800 up with ease even when the cases are full, but my failure rate at getting the FJR up is... embarrassing.

One day I will just sit in the driveway and do it until I either herniate a disk, or can get it on the stand every single time. Hell, I don't even try to pull up, but pushing down with all 125 of my pounds doesn't seem to cause the same level of movement in my FJR that it does in Dad's GL.

edit...

So I decided to try again, and up she comes no problem. Only thing I changed was actual neutral instead of 1st + clutch. ::shrug::

A whole pack of weaklings.
