Narrative:

After a good approach and landing, during rollout, while traveling just above taxi speed, I had raised the flaps, lowered the speed brakes, turned off the landing lights and transponder. As I took the left turn on the yellow line to the taxiway, I reached out and raised the landing gear retract lever. The nose gear collapsed immediately. The right main collapsed before stopping. In the future, I will exit the runway and stop before touching anything.
