Default When's the last time you left your kickstand down?

*Raises Hand* a week ago. It happened a couple of times when I was younger but probably not in 20 years.

I anticipated making a hard left, started leaning, stand hit and just about shot me into oncoming traffic.

I doubt it'll happen again any time soon but I know why they make bikes not start till the kickstand's up. I wonder how hard it'd be to modify it to do that.
