Yeah, done it too.. Stuck my leg under the exhaust on the way down to protect it from the gravel.....doh that hurt! only mirror damage and very swollen ankle....

I thought the dive on the front forks contributed to mine, as well as what the other comments were..

Now when I pull up I use the rear brake and also a wide stance to support the weight of the bike on uneven, loose or slippery surfaces..

Bt the way I was in a carpark full of tourists and had to get them to lift the bike off my leg cos I couldn't move.

I never went back there again... :blush:
