How to pick up a fallen motorcycle
#12
Any time I've ever lifted anything that was on it's side (dirtbikes, street bikes, rolled quads and side by sides) it has been the "squat/dead lift" technigue.
Stand on the tank/seat side, grab the bars and sub-frame bend at your knees and stand up. Similar to your first video but facing the the bike instead of away from it. You could always hit up the weight room to bulk up

If you ever fall, try that one that holding the front brake. That was getting there more than that push with your butt and use your leg way for me. But I am small, so that may have something to do with it.
But anyhow.. you don't want to lay it down even gentle if you don't have to. It's not just outside. She got liquids in her.

this must be a small person problem. I dropped mine in the driveway once and just picked it back up with no problems. Gravel driveway and i actually stood facing the bike and just grabbed the tank and subframe area and just heaved it up. (i'm sure adrenaline helped. lol)
And also, i would never practice picking my bike up. I heard its not good to have the bikes lay on their side.

Im 5'6. ..My friends picked it up easy but their both 6'3 &built so it could be that. Makes sence that its not good for it... Wanted to try it just to see if i could do it alone... Dont think its possible at this point esspecially grabbing it with my back against it...seemed easier when i was facing it but in the end still didnt get it up. Was a good work out though my legs ache today aghhh

I spend a lot of time in the weight room and find that most girls that lift are attractive. Of course not the ripped girls that are body builders and ripped and ****, but if you just work on toning your arms and especially your legs and butt, it will make you more attractive, stronger for your bike, and potentially more athletic. I also bench with several girls because they want to make their ***** bigger. Haha, little scared to get spotted by this one tho..

Last summer my bike's kickstand sunk in the sand and fell over. I was so PO'd and with my adrenaline going I lifted too fast and wasn't able to catch it while it fell over on the other side. I guess I just wanted to even out the scratches lol. I look back and laugh now but that was not a very good day for me.
