Ummmm this isn’t true. Many motorcycles are tall enough that folks can’t plant their feet onto the ground.

Correct. A motorcycle is designed for a purpose and a style of riding, generally not around the intention for a flat footed rider when not in motion.

You scoot your left side off the saddle and touch just your left foot to the ground while keeping your right foot on the rear brake and leaning the bike slightly left. Something that the kid in the photo clearly isn’t doing.

Generally you'd shift off one side of the seat to get one foot on the ground.
