Hello All
Had a very embarassing thing happen to me today. I was slowing down to stop at a light on my Vision. I was wearing tennis shoes with long shoelaces on them. Right before i was getting ready to put my feet down to stop, my shoelace jamed around the cluch pedal. The Vision went down right in the middle of the road. My face turned red, I got up, picked the bike up and jumped back on. That was embarrasing enough but then I had to sit there at the light and wait for it to turn green. There is a bright side to this story though, the Tip Over Pertection worked like a charm and I did'nt have a scrath on my baby.

EVRYONE MAKE SURE YOU KEEP THE LOOP OF YOUR SHOELACES AWAY FROM THE CLUTCH PEDAL. If you get it tangled in the pedal, good luck on keeping the bike up when you slow down. Don't worry though, the tip overs work great at a stand still .

a) Don't wear lacy things on a motorcycle
b) My Vision is the cruder version as I ain't got no clutch pedal
c) Take a motorcycle safety course...now
