I posted this up a little while ago, still makes me laugh

[leo-david]

I only saw it this week someone sent it via facebook, what a little cracker though, someones done a good job on that. Looks like with all the bits on it it gets used.

Was he sitting down or standing on the footpegs? :whistle:

Maybe he gets off?

Load up that GS with panniers and camping gear across the pillion seat - then see what he does

i am not much taller than that guy and only have a 28 inch inside leg,and i was fine on my gs but it was a factory low,which makes a big difference.best balanced bike i have ever owned.

That's running mount and dismount is pretty much what I had to do with my XT600 when it was fully loaded with luggage. I couldn't put throwover panniers over the pillion or it pushed the plastics in against the exhaust, so I had to have them over the riders seat and the panniers under my knees, meaning I couldn't straighten my leg to reach the floor. Traffic lights were a case of planning ahead so you didn't have to stop at them, crawling up to a red light at 2mph from 50yds back and hoping it goes green before you get there, confuses the hell out of the car behind you. You could coast to a stop in neutral, flick down the sidestand, and as you bring the bike to a complete halt, hold the sidestand forward with your toe and lean left to tip the bike over that way. Mounting and dismounting when stationary is exactly the same procedure as mounting a horse, by stepping up onto the left footpeg with your left foot, and swinging you right leg over once up there.
