Hey ya'll, haven't been here in a while...anyways I went to this moto gp showing at this guys house.  I went to put my helmet in his house and when I come outside I see him handling my bike in the driveway.  He wanted to make room for more bikes but he was just leaning my bike so far over when he was moving it.  Can you bend the rim if you lean it too far over?  I mean I guess you can't if there is no slope but what if there is a bit of a slope in the driveway?

I know Moto gp racers bend the lean over all the way but isn't it different when the bike is not moving?

you can't bend a wheel by leaning the bike

The guy didn't bend your wheel by leaning your bike over, but...as a general principle no one should touch, much less move, a bike owned by someone else without permission.
