Yes, the red kill switch. If that's what you are doing, it is not the problem. But why do that when you can just turn off the ignition key? In fact, my owners manual recommends NOT using the kill switch (Honda Shadow) so as not to inadvertantly leave the ignition on and drain the battery through the lights.
I know others have mentioned not leaving the key in PARK, but make sure by walking around behind the bike to be sure the taillight is off.
If all that doesn't help, I would take it to the shop. (I know others here do a lot of their own work, but I would rather spend some $ to have a pro do the work rather than screw up someting I know little about.)
