Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2006 suzuki boulevard m109r motorcycle fell off of its kickstand while idling in neutral on my level driveway. the kickstand was fully extended when the incident occurred. i got off of the motorcycle after backing it out of the garage in order to close the garage door. i was approximately five (5) feet from the bike, closing the garage door (manually operated). i had the door half way down when i noticed that the motor just suddenly quit. i turned to find the bike laying on its side. the kickstand does not have a lock with which to resist the stand from collapsing under minimal rearward pressure to the stand (forward movement of the bike). the bike weighs approximately 700 lbs dry, so this is a real area of concern for people very near the bike (shade-tree mechanics and small children immediately come to mind). -thank you for your time. *nm
