I've only dropped one bike, my recently bought/sold 2004 BMW R1150RT. Stopped at a stop sign on the way home from buying it, about three miles from where I bought it and it just fell over to the right. I didn't even know what happened. Never had that happen before. A passing motorist helped me pick it up, as I could not find anyplace to get hold of the darned thing. The next morning in the garage, as I took it off the centerstand, it went over on the right again before I knew what was happening. Had me spooked for awhile until I got accustomed to it. Found it only had about 15pounds of air in the front tire, but I don't know if that had anything to do with it. Never dropped it again though.
