^I love your Zed.. I don't see too many of the 650's about these days.

One of my last memories the sound from a mates Z650 with a short Alfa (4-1) exhaust, God I'm going back to the mid-late 80's

You're not a true biker unless you dropped your bike in a truly embarrassing fashion :cool:
My best one was getting off, thinking the stand was down (but it wasn't) and I just let go of it!

Taking Fazer off the center stand 4 hours after buying it and after 3 hours cleaning every nook and cranny.....

Happened me too on my first bike. It missed a BMW 5 series by a fraction of an inch so I was just glad I broke a brake lever. Lol.

My one and only drop came from trying to put the bike from its side stand onto a paddock stand.

Parking with the bike facing down a slope is a good way.
Haven't done it in a while now actually. Last time was after I washed the bike and putting it on the main stand. Stood on the lever on the stand -you have to put your full weight on it so your completely off the ground. But it was wet, so when the bike was half way up I slipped off. Side stand was still down, but of course, the bike decided to fall the other way!
Very important to learn the art of picking up a heavy bike!

The lid is a shoei qwest, very good helmet. Very comfortable and not much wind noise.
