Glider,
Why in neutral when on flat surface in garage? My assumption was always in gear no matter flat or on an incline, my reasoning is that in gear can't roll at all.


My garage is perfectly level and it's easier to park in the position that it is in.
 
I find that if you are doing two different things you will mess up eventually. So why not leave it in gear every time just to get in the habbit?
 
I alway park the bike in gear. Learned the hard way a bike will roll when not left in gear. I always start the bike in neutral with the clutch in, again learned the hard way. I attempted to start the bike in gear only pulling in the clutch, the bike almost jumped out from under me, the clutch was out of adjustment.
 
Mostly on incline.
Release the clutch and let her roll and stop.

Start in Neutral.
I do find I need roll her to get into neutral.
She is much harder to roll in gear and clutch in, could that mean I need a clutch adjustment?
