I ride one handed most of the time so it's no big deal just to reach down and flip the petcock to reserve.

i switch on the go when i can. Of course i usually run out of gas sitting at a light and when the light goes green, i twist the throttle and stall....annoying sitting there for a moment cranking while the gas catches back up.

Learn when it is without looking. While riding, practice finding it occasionally, look hard to do, swing your left out a linch and reach down there.

also prolly a good idea to check your fuel level before you start riding and hit up a gas station before you have to use reserve
