Agree. The motorcycle may well exist, but it certainly wasn't constructed by a man stranded in the desert. Not plausible.

  Yes. Also, would he really have bothered to attach a kickstand to it, in an emergency like that?

    It wasn't really an emergency. He had plenty of supplies, and was only a few kilometers away from the nearest town. This is as much of an emergency as your car breaking down on the trip from Dallas to Austin.

    The thing weighted about 200kg, so the stand was there so that he would not have to lift it up. Also, at no point it was really an emergency as he had ample rations.
