DON'T RIDE LIKE YA STOLE IT, RIDE TO SURVIVE.
I'll have to think about this, it's just instinct for me I guess. Hmmm, I often put both feet down I think, normally put it down into neutral unless I know the lights are about to change. If I do put one foot down I think it is usually the left. I'll post again after I've been for another ride (if this rain ever stops that is....)
Many years ago I owned a T500 and an 850 Commando (that's a Suzuki and a Norton respectively, for you younger ones!) at the same time. They had rear brake/gears on opposite sides, and gear patterns reversed (ie the Norton was one up three down). It was much easier than I thought not to get them muddled up, as they were such different bikes I always kinda knew which one I was on.
Being frustrated is disagreeable.
But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.

I tend to place both feet down at the same time, flick onto the right foot find neutral then both feet on the ground. I do have a tendency to flick the shift into neutral and come to a rolling stop but I am making an effort to get out of this habit. Always have the bike in neutral when waiting for lights etc.
