How many have climbed on, put the key in the ignition and then realised they had locked the forks?

I'm guilty of that but not the steering lock instead a chain through the rear wheel.
Most embarrassing.

Once tried to take off with a lock through the rear wheel. Didn't get very far.... Part of why I switched to the fork lock.

How about this guy,.... ?
-- His bike is on the centerstand.
-- He hops on the bike.
-- Starts it up, pulls in the clutch, and puts it in gear.
-- Rocks it forward off the centerstand without taking his feet off the pegs. (his way to show off in front of the rest of us hanging out in front of Kirby Hemby's motorcycle shop in Valdosta, GA)
-- He obviously wants to show us how cool he is by getting the bike rolling immediately with throttle and clutch as soon as the rear wheel hits the ground.
Guess what he forgot,...

Nice thing about my Ninja is that the ignition switch is also the fork lock. Too bad cruisers aren't so well designed.

Bingo X 2
It was funny for a few moments, but then, looking at the scratched up bike and helmet, and a few raspberries, it started sinking in,.. "there but for the grace of God,..."
