Dropped Her

This is a club I did not want to join.

I was going down a very narrow road in the NE Sandhills. The pavement ran out - I came to a full stop and I tried making a very tight U turn at very slow speed. I am not sure what happen but I dropped her.

This is what I think happen. I stalled it and she lurch froward and over.

I was very, very alone. Had not see anyone on the road and road was very remote. So no help around and it's not coming.

But, txs to this site and having read how to upright her, I did. She was on her kick stand side and on pavement. I made sure she was in gear, put my right hip under the seat and using both legs I pushed up very slow to the point I could reach down and pull the kick stand out. I then lowered here back on the kick stand.

No damage except to my ego.

Thanks to all of you who have given advise on how to right a Nomad.
