Yup - I can!

Don't tend to even try on the road - there's not many decent enough roundabouts round these parts - at least, not any without loads of cars or Diesel spills all over them! I also dislike the idea of cocking it up on the road!!

I am still yet to try on the Trumpet but as the weather's getting better & I need new tyres really soon (bloomin' thing eats rears!! ), I would imagine my knee will meet the tarmac again some time soon!

It's embarrassing enough to forget the side stands still up, but to be caught on camera is priceless

PS. I can't.

I used to get them down quite alot on the road but not any more. I found that I can go quicker and more smoothly without doing it. Having saying that I have a nasty habbit of getting my knee down then my peg and then closely followed by my rear brake lever going around druids at brands.
