Abstract
The motorcycle sidestand is a nearly universal method of allowing a motorcycle rider to park his vehicle unattended easily. If this stand is in the “park” position while the motorcycle is ridden through a left turn, a serious safety hazard exists. This paper presents observations made during the investigation of several motorcycle accidents attributable to the sidestand, over a five year period.
