Nice technique well demonstrated. In my experience with a slow speed topple over, most folks rush to get their bike back upright because they are massively embarrassed at dropping it in the first place.
Thank you. I think you are right - people may feel embarrassed and so rush into picking it up. That's when further mistakes/ accidents can happen of course!
Noooooo! OMG that hurts me to look. I have the exact same bike, and I never want to see her like that! But yeah, sh*t happens... Glad you're OK, and Ride Safe 🙏🏼
Been there, dropped my bikes as well. Sooner or later it happens. The easiest bike to pick up is my BMW boxer, since it will never lay completely flat (unless the cylinder breaks off) 😂
I dropped mine recently,leg was under the exaust &road(thankfully protected 99%of bike)..was litterally starting to smoke my leathers,i tried everything to get my continental off my leg&im pretty strong lad,and i couldent even budge my enny,thankfully the person who was 2in behind me that id pulled over to let them pass,cos i was just tryna have a nice cruisy ride ..and bammo lose dirt on side of tarmac...were capsizing commander🙃..helped pull it up that tiny bit for my adrenalon to upright..but honest,if she hadent of stopped &helped,my leg would of fried to a crisp,before i could of got it off,it also cracked my shin..but i got right back on &continued my cruisy ride,legs still sore as hell a week later🤔
I wanted to give people the confidence to know that if they did drop their bike then with the right technique they should be able to pick it up again without too much of a problem

Wow! Thankfully you are OK. And thanks to that person who helped you! Cheers for sharing it
@@thesussexrider definatly was a bit of a freakout 👍😀
Why the heck would you drop your bike? The costs of motorcycles and scooters are horrendous these days.
