Just an idle thought as I was riding home through torrential rain yet again tonight - I'm right handed and can't imagine how it would affect my throttle and front brake control if I had to use my 'weaker' hand - how do you south paws cope with this or is there are market for left handed motorcycles?

I'm ambidextrous. Write and wank with left but do most other things with with right. Throw darts, play cricket, golf all with right. Weird one is a used to play tennis and I serve with right but play with left. Just left footed though. Can't kick shit with my right foot. I do find left handers easier than right though on the bike.

How is your clutch control No 47? Must be shocking if you are right handed?
It's like using a computer, how many left handed people do you see actually using the mouse with their left hand? Just like anything else, you learn it one way, and it feels awkward to do it any other way after that.

Yeah I use mouse and trackpad with right hand. Using with left would feel very odd now.

Indian police motorbikes had the loud handle on the left bar, so they could shoot their side arm with the right.

Similar to that I think its weird to get on the bike from the right side since my left leg is the strongest
most bikes have left stands and most people have stonger right legs

I do a little flying where the joystick is operated by the left hand. I find it hard to manipulate the trim buttons on the joystick with
that hand. I also suspect my landings would be a whole lot more elegant if I could use my right hand.
