robintrial Posted December 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 erm, not allways had indicators and you dont take your foot off the peg to turn do you? sorry didn't know about the indicators but i most of the times i take my foot of the peg (on my motorbike in a turn) just to get more control. and in the times they didn't had indicators i supose they didn't need them because there was no traffic like these day's robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bella Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 (edited) on uk roads you definatley turn right more than left because of roundabouts however i dont know if this has anything to do with brake setup. our brakes are that way round because the british made them that way. The reason others are diffrent is because the japs decided it was cheaper to mount the gearbox diffrentley on motorbikes (something to do with the way drive is transfered)and that ment the brakes were mounted the other way if you want me to, i can find out more, but basically its because the japs found a cheaper way to make it (as always) and this ment alot of the world got the cheaper more reliable jap bikes so did it there way as we stuck to our guns and did it our way.
