kick stand kill-switch. I find this little device very annoying. Although I understand that is designed to prevent people riding off when the stand down, it is very useful to be able to start the bike up while it is still on its stand so it can warm up while you are gearing up and generally fit-farting around

The factory reckon the fork oil capacity is 330ml in each fork tube. I think you're supposed to "pump" the forks to expel the oil from the inside of the damping cylinder rather than just let it drain off.

You SHOULD be able to start and idle the engine with the stand down as long as the gearbox is in neutral or the clutch lever is pulled in if it's not. That's how mine is wired up.
