Key or kickstand

[EVENKEEL]

When you stop the motorbike do you use the kickstand to shut down engine then turn key off? I had an incident years ago where I didn't properly put kickstand down and the MB fell over damaging other nearby bikes. So, for years now I put kickstand down first to shutdown motor, problem with that method is I have a few times forgot to turn off key and battery is drained.

Kickstand first, then open seat and put helmet away, requires me to turn engine off in the process

My accident happened at a 7-11, like MB dominoes, super embarrassing.

key first then kick stand.

As you say - if I do the kickstand first, there is a chance that I will forget the key.

Especially as

1 schitte memory,

2 I usually leave the key in the ignition anyway.

 

I leave the helmet on the mirror. Never put  it away.
