Are you?

Key off, in gear on side stand. Almost never use the center stand. Mainly worried someone in a parking lot might somehow bump the bike from behind, and knock it off the center stand.

 

Usually kick down the stand to shut 'er off,then remove the key and I always leave it in gear.
I so rarely use the kill switch that when "somehow" it gets flipped open I get a panic attack when my bike won't fire up right away!

 

off w/ key in neutral w/ side stand; if parked on hill in gear w/ tail end leading down hill against a curb.

 

Key, neutral usually but if I think there is any chance of rolling in gear.

 

I usually just do the sidestand in neutral when riding, and the centerstand in neutral when at home. I should get in the habit of leaving her in gear on the sidestand on hills at least.
As far as the kill switch or key, I do 50/50, but yes, I also have a small heart attack each time i try and start her up and nothing happens...cause the kill switch is on...

 

<---What he said.

 

I use the kill switch and then turn the key off. I usually put it on the center stand because I thnk it is more solid. I will leave it in gear if it is on a hill and I use the kick stand because the center stand leans to one side too much.

 

Key off, neutral unless on a hill.

 

Well I always kill the engine with the kill switch. When I park it everywhere other than my garage I pop it up on the center stand and leave it in neutral. However, in my Garage I have a Baxley Sport Chock that I ride the front wheel into and I leave it in 1st when I do that to keep someone from accidently yanking it out of the chock. I put that keeper lock on the Baxley but I'm not overly confident that would keep the bike in the chock if someone sat on it and rocked it backwards.

 

A man after my own heart! I love doing that to my friends at stoplights!

I always Kill Switch it first. Don't know why.

 

I can't believe you're discussing this.

What kind of underwear do you like? Do you prefer Kotex or Tampax? Do these leathers make my ass look big?????

Ditto :nod:

 

Yo, thanks to whom set up the poll, good form :wink:

 

Just let off the clutch in 3d gear, then switch, nuetral, key, battery, vice grips on the fuel line... Gotta be sure no one runs off with it:nono:

 

I have always used the key. All the Honda owners manual tell you to use the key also.

I happen to know someone that uses the switch,.... don't ask how many times we've had dead battery/push start him.

 

Killswitch, then key, leave it in first.

Unless I am jumping it up on the center stand, then neutral.

Nicely played, rngdng

 

killswitch then key and neutral, then I can let it warm up again without changing gears in the morning

 

Key, 1st gear, side stand unless at home then it's in the garage, key, centre stand, neutral, cover, pat on the ass.
