If you are struggling with the weight? Make sure you point the front tire where you want to go. Coming to a stop where you are going to use your left leg to hold up the bike? Have that front tire pointing slightly to the left. That will stop it from rolling in the direction of the fall. Momentum combined with weight is what gets you. Same rule with off camber stops, the road drops away to your right for example. If that front tire is pointing right, you will go down hard. If it is pointing to the left you can lean your body weight left or even let the clutch out some and the motor will pull the bike out of the fall. Of course if you have the front pointing right and let the clutch out? You can do a doughnut:green_lol:
