The security system disables the ignition. So if I am just running in for lunch or some other short errand, I don't lock either. If I am in a hotel overnight, I lock both. Otherwise it's in my garage.

I lock everything when staying at a hotel, or when I will be off the bike for a extended period and it will be parked in a public unsecured place. (like when we went to Sturgis this year) Other than that I do not bother.
I lock both of mine in my garage too, especially if I've left my car outside which has the garage clicker on the sunshield. My dogs would bark if anybody got into my garage. I use both locks whenever I park anywhere unless I can see the bike then I just use one.
