There's a lot of OCD on here! That does include me, too.

I'm happy to read that many of us are totally obsessed with pressing the indicator cancel. I am always doing that as I just can't believe the darn thing is really off! It's not just me, then.

Also, like others on here, lights on (always), check I have money on me before refuelling, even when I know I have, giving the side-stand a good couple of kicks forward so I know it's definitely down and I'm not heading for an embarrassing roll around on the ground. As well as the left glove first, as I mentioned in an earlier reply.

Another one when I do my cross thing, I make sure my gloves are on properly, its weird though as I only ever do it on one piece of road near my house, its about 500 yards from my house soon as I am straight on it, I let both hands off, lean back-ish check the gloves and cross my chest.

They don't release any plates with those numbers now.
When I worked in sales there was a guy who refused to complete on a new bike deal because he realised there was 666 in the chassis number...
