my busa sliped off stand

[Kozo]

dont want to sound like a dickhead but have a new house painted concrete in new garage (not slippery ,paint professional for garages) and the bike parked well slipped . ive been told to get a new stand or grind the edge back to increase the angle (harleys are heavy also and they have a strong stand) /just passing on advice

i know the feeling .try to keep the bike in gear when its parked.this helps.them side stands are shite

I had my bike fallover in the shed but luckily i had Oggy knobs fitted.
When i turn the handle bars to lock the steering i always pull back the bike gently ( while my foot stops the side stand) to make sure the stand is locked on.
Its second nature now and even do it on my DRZ 400, but after seeing the bike fall over its something i dont want to do again
