Black Friday CB ride

[the Ferret]

Good Pictures Ferret.. I see a red cord from clutch lever to the side stand which I guess is more of a safety reminder for the rider.. can you throw some more light and share your safety precaution?

In certain parking situations (surface drops away on left of bike) I put a block of wood under the side stand so it doesn't lean over so far. Makes it easier for me to get off the side stand. The cord loop which I put between grip and bar end reminds me the wood is there, so I straighten up the bike, grab the cord, reel in the block of wood, wrap up the cord and stow it in my tank bag. If I'd have parked facing the other direction the block would not have been necessary.

I have one for the ST too.
