Sometimes, I have to use my hip to get the bigger bikes off the side stand to start the back up process. I have to back my bikes out of the garage everyday to ride. Straight out then in a 1/4 circle to the right, to get them facing uphill straight out the driveway. The only time I dropped one was the time I put the sidestand up and forgot. Backed it straight out, did the 1/4 circle and started to let it rest on the sidestand that wasn't there. Down it went.
Same technique I use ferret but I back mine into position at the end of a ride so I can ride out next time.
