Post Why Do You Fly From the Right Hand Seat?

A fellow rotorhead asked me this on chat the other night. I couldn't remember, though I thought I'd read it somewhere. But I can't find the answer anywhere. Is it a weight and balance thing (when flying solo)? Or is it just convention? Is it the same in all helicopters?

Hope you don't mind me asking such a basic question but I'd really like to know.
