Default New 900rr owner...which position is the petcock on/off/reserve?

I just got this bike and there is no marking or way to understand what is on/off/reserve. Anyone have any pic for this or way to let me know? Thanks.

Yeah....bike runs now...lol. All my older Honda's (73 CB750, 67 CL 125) had the petcock on in the middle position, so I figured, well the middle should at least be on, then one side or the other is off. Well, it wouldn't run in the middle so...I had to look on here. Low and behold...I had it off...haha.

I gotta tell ya, going from CB750s that started this whole thing, it's QUITE amazing to feel the evolution of these bikes. I got on this 900 and was freakin amazed. Bigger feeling, but lighter, throttle response is amazing, so refined. Wish it wasn't WINTER!!!
