Hey Gals, I havent been around too long, so i dont know if this is a re-post or not but i fiugured it might be helpful to some of us ladies! I found this step-by-step on a Kawi Forum and thought it would be much appreciated here. Heres how to pick up a dropped bike using leverage rather than brute strength! Yay! I thankfully have not had to use this technique out on the streets but have practiced it at home in the garage. Hope this helps!!!

My friend sent this website to me, the only thing is it works for cruisers/touring bikes but more difficult for sport bikes. I tried it already. :) LOL

I have yet to dump/drop a bike (knock on wood) and hopefully won't have to experience it, but great post.

Most of the leverage is at the clip ons or grips. I did a police course once on a police bike which are heavy as shit. I crashed it a few times and had to pick it up. Get the bike tilt it a bit grab onto the grips and get your hips by the grips. Lift up with the legs. Back should stay staight for more power.

Not to be a cornhole, but I think that chick could pick up a gold wing with one hand.
