Longer shocks + regular sidestand = fallover? (Read 97 times)

Gender:	Longer shocks + regular sidestand = fallover? 07/03/15 at 01:45:22 Probably should have seen this one coming. Lean angle looks scary but hasn't fallen over yet. Using 12 1/2" shocks for stance, but would like longer/safer sidestand. Ideas?

ROFLMAO

Grew up in NY and "you hockey puck" was a standard. Dunno why this made me laugh so hard...but I honestly did laugh out loud.

Kudos for Adapt, Improvise, and Overcome.

Reply #5 - 07/04/15 at 02:16:25 I've only seen hockey pucks on tv. Where does someone in Arizona lay, do Muppets have hands? Anyway, where is a hockey puck found?
