I've done it a couple times. it's nice when try'n to manuver in tight areas... wouldn't bother doing it on the street... or where I didn't "need" to...

I started doing it a little while ago. Not parking front in and then spinning it, but just rotating it on the stand when I need to move it in the garage or something. Definately not a pro at it.

I've never heard of anyone doing this. I could use it in my garage, but I'd be scared of dumping it.

I mentioned this to the wife just this past week...she didn't know what I was talking about.
I said "like this"...grabbed the R6 and started rotating it....she wasn't impressed...said she thought the kickstand may snap or fold up and if I felt like doing that again to use the R1 and leave her R6 alone !!

SOP, everyone should learn to do it properly, it's helpful when moving the bike in tight areas.

i could do it with my Honda, and it came in GREAT when I needed to move that beast around, but with my Gxsr not so much...the balance doesnt seem right for it...
but i dont have an issue moving it around anyway...
