Doing the footpeg mount from the left side puts a huge strain on the side stand. Bent the one on my KTM that way especially with luggage. The right side footpeg mount actually takes some of the weight off the side stand. Best way to do this is to grap some front brake and lean over the bike while mounting cause the bike wants to come down towards the right side and may fall over if you don't bend over to the left. This is a only required if you are short, old, carry a lot of luggage or bored. The rest of us can mount simply by flinging your right leg over the seat. ::001::
