You may also want to apply a slight reward force to keep the sidestand from closing while you pivot. If the stand closes go ahead and drop the bike. Saving your back is more important than scratching the paint.

Great that you are passing this level of experience on to others bikers, I like this rider technique series, thank you.

Excellent video. Thanks for taking the time to film and edit it and of course for positing it for our benefit. Keep up the good work! -Migs

Thank you for your very clear explanation! This is just what I needed for the tight trails I do!

I found this video helpful. Even though I do this quite often, I learned something and for that thank you. As always, I will show other riders I see struggling with this technique.

Very nice, I'm going to have to try that. Your video series are awesome!!! Thanks

Sorry to be negative for this well made video. Sidestands are designed to support the weight of a leaning motorcycle. They are not designed to support the whole weight. You may get away with this a few times, but the stand bushings or frame bracket will stretch and weaken very quickly. Each time the bike spins the torsional forces put on the stand cause the brackets and bushes to twist, these forces were never factored in during design and the metal will fracture. This is not a skill you have to master, just turn the bike the same way as all other bikers do.

DutyDruid Agreed. For your reasons, plus possible snapping or closing of the stand, I'd be far too nervous to try this technique. I'd rather bounce the bike or get a push to reverse and turn.

True, doing it repeatedly on a bike that's not made for it can be dangerous yet it could be helpful in some situations

Great advice! Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you for sharing!!! Will try this weekend!!!

Wow this is brilliant, great tutorial guys Danke !

One word ...brilliant! (I'm definitely going to give it a go with my Honda CB500X)

Holy moly! TODAY I LEARNED! THIS IS SO COOL!

Great tip. Nice accent too! Comment from Australia.

Wow 🥺 woohoo 😻 I learned a good lesson . Thanks 👍😊

Lots of people have GEDs. You were smart enough to acquire an GED. Common sense goes along way too.

Nice one sir I am a Filipino I like your style how turn around the bike without full force I will apply that and I make that in may content as a vlogger is that ok with sir

El mismo modelo de Bmw, fui testigo como su piloto con la misma maniobra Rompió el parador lateral(verlo para creerlo)

can i do 2016 gsa1200 ?

👍👍👍

What the weight of this bike?

I remember my first bike I foolishly would lift from the rear fender to turn it little by little 😅 this is much easier.

I'm from Malaysia.

Wow.... Now I know😁

Within time it will break, no matter type of your frame material. Avoid

🙏👍

I want to know how to bend the kickstand, it's too strong, the side of the streets have a slope at the end and my kickstand is holding my bike weird and it has tipped over 2 times already because of strong winds... A Quick Fix would be probably to loosen the bolt that holds the kickstand so i can have the extra space as if it was bent.. and just lean on it

TREESGOBOOM I think you would be EXTREMELY unwise to bend or loosen your stand! Bending it could very seriously weaken it, and loosening it could dangerously change where the supporting strength is coming from. Could you change the direction you park your bike or park on the opposite side of the road etc to solve the problem?

😊

I have trail but, I don't dare to do this haha 😆

I cant do it on my 500 ib bike. K100 bmw rt

I heard that you could damage your kickstand doing this
