I would bet almost everyone at one time or another, as a newbie to bikes, has had it stall when putting it into gear, forgetting to raise the stand and then wondering for a second, or a minute, why it stalls. Embarrassing, but that's how you learn, and at least if you make that little mistake, you don't get hurt, except for your ego.

No, I was talking to the OP about leaving the kickstand down. :biggrin:
