I'm sensing you've left some bags in your time? I do the same check, probably for the same reason as I could probably recall a time where I had to quickly turn back and pick up my work bag from the pavement.

That's pretty much my routine:

I get all gear on
sit on bike to get it off its side stand
start and let revs settle for about 10 secs
ride off
I'll keep the revs below 2 grand (v twin thou) until I hit 70+ degrees temp
party time

end of ride, park and engine straight off (unless its already off while I coast to a stop)

Seems to be what norm for the more educated of us
