Timing has much to do with the success of a rain dance.

I used a disc lock for a while and at least 2 times that I can remember, i forgot it was on there.  Got on the bike, fired it up and took off only to roll about a foot, then stop suddenly and fall to the side  :shok:

Only twice?  I put the disc lock on over the weekends or if I'm out of town for a while.  I'm pretty good at remember it, now.  But I invariably would forget it and back up against it coming off the center stand.

I put it on the right disc, now, as I banged up the speedo cable connection pretty good, one time. :crazy:


After the 2nd time, I started putting it on the rear disc.... it still stops you, but I haven't dropped her since.
