Should I use the side prop or centerstand when I park?

Use the side prop for everyday parking, and the centerstand for storage and maintenance.

The side prop creates a larger tripod than the centerstand does, and is more stable for parking on the street. The centerstand creates a smaller parked footprint, and takes the rear wheel off the ground; this is the better position to have when doing work on the bike, and when parking it at home. If you can use the sidestand at home, though, you should, as the bike is less likely to fall over that way.
