Here is one I did before. I never use the kill switch to turn my bike off. I always use the key because if I don't I usually leave the key in. I let a buddy ride my bike to try it out and when he finished he killed the kill switch and turned the key off. Well I'm fixing to leave (I'm about 50miles from my home) and I turn the bike on. The headlight comes on and I hit the start button. Nothing. I hit it again and I figured I killed my battery somehow.

So I run and try to push it off. Nothing. I run and push it some more. Nothing. I roll it down a hill and let off the clutch. It still wouldn't start. I'm getting pissed at this point (and as Murphy's motorcycle law states. There were girls + friends to view this) and start pushing it up hill to try it one more time. I push it up hill and then notice my kill switch in the off position (After I pushed it up hill of course). I turn it on and the bike starts right up.
