Dropped my new bike on the floor

This is what worries me putting the stand on by myself.....

but the single sided swingarm and ducati stand make it a breeze (so far touch wood), on a regular swingarm and doing that myself resulted in the same as OP damaged all the parts I just replaced after co worker pushed my bike over as apprentice back in the day for something I didn’t even do.

I was using an Anderson steering head lift stand .
The stand has no problem it was just the idiot using it[/QUOTE

If you don’t mind my asking, how did you manage to drop bike off a head stand ? I have dropped off a fork bottom lift before, but the steering neck stands are quite sturdy, and once locked in should be safe as it comes.
As I am typing this, I have a bike sans front end on a steering head stand.
Hope your bike is ok .

I dropped my old KTM Duke at a supermarket. Teo idoi5s had just reversed into each other and were yelling. Didn't realise my stand was only half down wholst laughing at them and over she went. Lucky there was ho damage apart from why ego and a stached bar end.
