Sage advice there! That was my first (of many) KLR falls. 1st gear, I had no lower gear to shift into and suddenly the bike was standing still, then leaning at about a 45 degree angle before my strength was not enough and gravity took over. No one was around to watch and nothing got hurt. Not even my pride - because no one was around to watch. Amen! Can I get a witness? No? ...Good! Mike revmaaatin wrote:
