Bill - What I'm understanding from your comments is that you expect as long as you don't do anything stupid, you'll never put the bike on the ground. I wish you the best of luck with that, but it's a longshot at best. Motorcycles are inherent unstable machines. Let go of them and they fall over.

We spend years trying to keep it from happening, and sometimes we're successful, but overconfidence in our skills to the point where we believe it can't happen to us may come back to bite us. Practice as much as you can, ATGATT, and have fun.
