I use the kill switch, but I really don't think it matters.

Depends on if I get on the bike from the left or right side.

Switches? Switches? You're askin' me about switches?

I just ride it 'til the tank is dry and it shuts itself off. Then I turn off the ignition switch - don't need a dead battery.
