When I did a BMW demo day I was kicking the side cases as I got off and on the bike. The rep taught me a trick of mounting the bike like a horse. Left foot on the peg, squeeze the front brake, throw your leg over. Do the opposite order to get off. It made a world of difference and I've done it successfully on BMW and Triumph adv bikes. I didn't have side case on my NC, so I never tried it on my bike, until now. With two new adventure cases I'm kicking them more than I did on the Bimmer. I tried the mounting trick and the kickstand feels pretty wobbly.
Anyone mount this way on a regular basis and know I won't snap the side stand off the frame?
