OK, It wasnt very far.  I felt I should roll the bike outside and start her up and get the gas flowing through the carbs and let the brand new alternator to pump some juice to the battery.  So while shes warming up I think...hey wonder how it would feel to straddle the bike and support the side load......IT FELT GREAT!  So I gave her some gas and let the clutch out a wee bit and the bike took off like a shot, I reeled in the clutch and grabbed a big handful of front brakes and got her to stop right before we went off the edge of the driveway.  Moved about 3 feet but it was a rush!!!!  Cheesy  .....Next week Ill take a short ride with the back brace on

PS.  It was asked before.....I found out how long it takes to start to stumble (running out of gas) at idle.  At idle (900rpm) I turn off the Pingel and in 3 minutes shes stumbling for gas

A small victory but a victory nonetheless.
