have laid my bike's down more than enough times first street bike was a 1973 Kawasaki Z1, i had just left a party yeah i know had a couple of beers and shouldn't have but did i was younger then anyway was only 6 blocks from my house and figured easy ride home all was fine till i saw the red light bar behind me ,think it was a cop figured better do things right and stop for the flashing stop light rather then slow and go , so stop i did i must of sat there a while cause the next thing i know i am being helped up off the pavement by a bunch of laughing firemen , who was saying that was so cool , they said i just sat there perfectly balanced for about 2 minutes then it was light slow motion over i went ,since forgot to put my feet down when I stopped almost 15 yrs later i ran in to one of those fire men still working and he say i remember you then he tells all of my buds what happened will never live that one down oh BTW it was a fire truck behind me not the cops LOL
