W O W 40 posts on which way to place your front tire parked. Has'nt anyone ever start out on a bicycle??
can there truly be purpose and direction to life if one's motorcycle wheel is not pointed in the right direction?

I've noticed a couple folks mention this. Every R11/1150/12/K-bike I've owned will allow you to turn the ignition key to the locked position with the bars full left OR full right. I'm not aware of BMW doing this any differently on any individual models.
funny, in all the BMWs i've owned (airheads, R1100S, K75s, K1100s, F800GS) I have never found a fork lock that allows locking when bars turned to the right! same is true on ay other branded bike.
to the OP's question-
most bikes prefer a left turn bar to park. its more stable, and only way the steering lock works. that is what we teach in the MSF BRC.
HOWEVER, my F800GS generally prefers right turn, due to its high saddle height, and extreme left lean. this makes mounting and getting the bike to an upright position easier. my WAG is that this is the reason that they recommended the right turn park.
When you begin to walk away from the bike, is it approperiate to take the first step with your right or left foot?
