When I open an new incognito window and open the developer tools its always docked to the bottom :S
Is there any way I can set the default dock to the right? Or is there some hotkey I can use to change the dock position?

Change where DevTools is docked by using the Command Menu Or, press Shift + Ctrl + P on Windows/Linux or Command + Shift + P on macOS.
Chrome DevTools: Rearrange DevTools Panels with drag and drop to reorder them. You can rearrange the DevTools Panels to your preferred order. Drag and drop a panel heading to move it to your desired location. For example if you mainly use the Console Panel, you can drop it into first place.
You can also change the Chrome DevTools dock position. You can either undock into a separate window, or dock it on the left, bottom, or right side of the browser. The dock position can be changed by pressing Cmd + Shift + D ( Ctrl + Shift + D ) or through the menu.
Pressing Ctrl + Shift + D will dock all devtools to left, right, bottom in turn.
The chromium ticket today was marked as won't fix https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=376788
So it is very unlikely we will get this behavior. Personally I hate the default behavior being dock to right.
The original argument for it being changed to dock to right was because lots of people were upvoting these questions about how to dock it to right.
Maybe if we get enough people to upvote how to make it go back to the bottom they will change it back :)
EDIT: On second thought it looks like it is now picking up some traction, and they are working on implementing this. See comment https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=376788#c45
EDIT #2: Chrome 44 was just released and now the position is carried over when you open a new incognito window
