Yes, in 34 years of riding, I had to put it down three or four times. The last time was the last time I've ridden, coming up on seven years now!
Wasn't worried about what I landed on, ever! Wallet, cell phone, car keys, Zippo lighter, et al are the least of your worries when riding a motorcycle in traffic. It's the dumbass that turned in front of you..
I'll carry whenever I can, where ever I can!
