    I haven't had the Buell fall over yet, I always leaving it idling on the sidestand when i'm putting on my helmet/jacket/gloves but I make sure it's at least on flat ground.

    When I was new to riding I was visiting a friend about an hour away, had my bike in their driveway and due to the angle it was more upright than usual. I was trying to bungee something to the back seat, and as I was pulling the bungee cord down to the right passenger peg bracket, it was just enough to pull the bike to the right and down it went. Got to ride home with the stub left from what used to be the footpeg.

    On a similar note, I did manage to crunch up my front fender earlier this week when I tried to roll my bike back out of a parking spot before I started it, and before I pulled off the disk lot. What a horrible noise to hear.

    I always put my disk lock on the rear because it's harder to get to for the person trying to take it. It also hits the swing arm instead of something soft if you forget. I speak from experience.

    I like that! what holds it to the lever mount so it doesn't just pop out of the top of the hole?

    The diameter is bigger at the bottom. The aluminum piece is screwed on. I have also anodized it red.
