As close as I have come with this bike was in Eureka Springs, AR last weekend. I was going through there on 23 (through the touristy, downtown section). The road is really, really canted and a pedestrian walked into the road. Quick stop from 15 mph. Couldn't get my right foot to the asphalt because I'm really short legged and the massive angle of the road. I had to slide off the seat, completely to get my foot down before going over. Had a hard time starting again too. While I was braking/down shifting, I missed 1st and ended up in neutral. Being off the bike so far I couldn't reach the shifter. Good times, good times.
