Sometimes I think too much...or maybe not enough. The question came up whether left handed riders have trouble getting used to motorcycles that are designed for right handed riders. All of the hand controls are designed for right handed riders. Right ?
See what I mean about my thinking processes ;D

Try riding a quad runner with a thumb throttle on the right side...that is hard to get used to for a right hander, it must be tougher for a left hander.

I do most everything right handed (including golf) but for some reason I bat left handed when playing baseball / softball. Go figure....
Oh yeah, almost forgot. When I played ice hockey in high school and college, I shot left handed, but could shoot from the right side too.... Then again, that was more than 30 years and about 70 pounds ago. ;D

I am right handed but practice things left handed like writing, throwing, and and years ago, batting. I learned to eat left handed due to my sister being one of the "weird".
Being a draftsman and breaking your right hand is no fun

I am right handed but have been practicing writing with my left hand. That way if I have a stroke I can still sign checks and stuff.

Even though I'm right-handed for everything... I shoot better left-handed than I do right-handed!

I am glad I am right handed. Cause all my tools are right handed... except for 2 screwdrivers! ;D

I'm a lefty and am ambidexterous with tools by necesssity as my job required lots of wrenching etc.. As for the weird part, I guess so considering I now ride a 3 cylinder bike with the motor going lengthwise (Triumph Rocket III). I always liked being different with my bikes, never had a Harley in my life.

I'm a lefty. The controls on a motorcycle were never an issue for me.Tools and guns are were being a lefty can be an issue.That shell ejecting from the right side of a gun sucks!
