Eddy!! Your pan euro should have a piece of metal that will swing down from under the rear swing arm. Use your toes to lower that piece of metal and you will discover that it will prop up your bike very well.
Ankles need not apply

Cheers

AH but Timbs Honda in their infinite wisdom only put one on the left and it just so happened the dear old Pan decided to lay down and have a rest on the right hand side , I would not mind but the old girl did not ask permission went and bin and gone and did it with total disregard for my feelings on the matter at all , and ankle being in the way at the time now HURTS sprained they said PAINFUL it is , bad to live with she says not a good patient she says

A right hand side lay down for a rest would indicate to me an un balanced diet.
What are you feeding the old girl??
Did you have an extra pair of socks in the right hand Pannier??

According to Anne it is ME that is unbalanced not the bike ???? well if thats true says I it is living with you for 47 years that has caused it , now you might say that that was not a wise thing to come out with when she was so close !!!! a heavy hand that one let me tell you ,mmmmm age and foolishness comes to mind , salt dust was the cause of lack of traction mmmmm not a happy chappy and not a happy Dexter he just cant understand why hi mate is not taking him for his walks ??

You must indeed be in pain if Dexter is not getting his walks. Sad

Hey, I've done that! 2004 TT trip. Pan with passenger. Passenger can get burnt too (fortunately only on the boot)! Bike never fell over though, just "listed" to one side as Pan's are want to do...

So was your reply-yes dear-very nice...but how do I both it on the camper?
Stiff?sounds like you need decent pain meds and possibly some physioterrorsim and maybe some rice (rest/ice/compression/elevation before you start thinking I'm talking about food)
