FOR BEING SUCH A HEAVY BIKE...
the back end of an Ultra sure can
slide out from under you.  Specially on smooth pavement, and just a little too much rear brake.  Laid over far enough to hear the kick stand.  I saved it. Fukcin' ass gasket driveing a pick-up truck with no lights in thre rear what so ever.

Nice save! I've had Vader's ass totally sideways in a panic stop on white intersection paint.....It ain't fun.

When the roads are wet I do that in the sidecar rig all the time.

Glad you're alright, but have you managed to get the seat upholstery out of your backside yet? That high a pucker factor can generate some serious suction...

Done it before and had a few sparks coming from the board. Don't remember how I got it back up and riding, but it was a while before the shaking stopped. Frickin horse in the road. No lights on him either.

I took Tawanda for a spin through the old hood a couple of weeks ago. And yes, the intersection of Bryant Irving and Greenwood Creek is still slicker than greased owl shit.

Once you get your foot off the rear brake and realize the engine is about to stall and need to down shift and you do is when time speeds back up.

How high does the sidecar get when you scrape the kickstand?
