So I need to get my bike down to Chuck. I was going to drive it down and have a nice visit but with all the stay at home and I have seen stories of FL state patrol stopping cars from out of state I hade to come up with a plan B.
PLAN B
I do medical logistics for a living. Move CT/MR/Cath labs, linear accelerators ect from all over the world to hospitals around the US.
one if my customers has a large amount of "scrap" they need be disposed of. Last time I was visiting Chuck I notice a van behind his building that says, Medical and electronic scrap. Humm, better take a photo of that.

I remembered the van last week and came with my plan B.

I asked the company, do you want to keep paying storage or move on this scrap? They said arrange to get it done. So I booked a truck and by some strange coincidence there was exactly enough room to add my RD...
So it will arrive to Chuck tomorrow morning.
cost to Paul $0.00.

load bars are in front of the load so nothing will shift onto my bike and the driver had 2 bikes so he will be nice to it.

Nice move!

It puts a lot of stress on the sidestand the way you have it.  Imagine the suspension compressing every time you hit a bump.

Always best to strap the bike down with the stand up.

Well recovery no plans only hopes of deals gap happening and meeting Chuck then. Looking worse for that everyday. May have to wait this out and then go for a visit to FL.

Also
Note about the kickstand. Your right.
