[QUOTE="DELETE-PLEASE, post: 639752, member: 17204"] Quick fix/prevention for this, is use the kickstand engine cut off. I never use the key or switch to turn off the bike. When I park it or get where I'm going, I stay in first gear with the clutch in, flip the kickstand down (which turns off the bike), and then release the clutch and lean her on the stand. Snag the key and leave. ALWAYS parked in gear. When I leave, I stand on the left side and use my right foot to flip up the gearshift to neutral, and twist the key and press the starter. Starts right up in neutral (won't start if I've gone too far and it's in second or third or something), and this prevents me from thinking it's in first cause it WON'T start in gear with the kickstand down.
