Walked out to my bike this morning...and the brake light was on.  :thumb:

Accidentally turned the key to "park" instead of "lock" when I got home last night.

2nd time I've done this.

Had to DRIVE into work today.

Battery is charging under my desk right now.

That sucks :P

I'm new to this bike but I always check to ensure it's off when I park it now because I left it on once before but luckily only for 15 minutes. :)
Best Regards,

I feel ya man- a few years ago, my parents came home one night, and asked me "Hey what's that glowing in the garage?"
Apparently, it was my dim tail light and a near dead battery...

I've done it once, but it was only for like an hour.  As I was walking back out to my bike, I was thinking how weird it was that the sun was hitting my taillight in a way that made it look like it was lit up  :laugh:

That's the first thing I did. Got up to a decent speed rolling down a hill and popped the clutch. Unfortunately the cement was too slick and the tire just skidded. ha. Got a nice lil workout pushing the bike back up the hill to my parking space. Anyways...charged the battery yesterday. All is well today. Happy Friday all.
