Now, buttons. The horn is right where I'd expect the indicators to be,
and vice versa. This will definitely be embarrassing in the future.
I've given up using the horn on my R-GS. I got fed up vexing my ire with a
blast of left indicator.
Heh. I had that problem with my K100.
Actually, I very rarely use the horn. The only time I had to in
several months was a few days ago when a cager who was - I think - on
his mobile dithered and wobbled around in front of me, then pulled
over to the kerb and slowed.
After giving him a second or two to be sure, I made to overtake, and
he suddenly swung out as if to do a U-turn, at which point I hit the
brakes and played a melody on the horn section of the Fiamm Symphony
Orchestra.
The effect was startling; he swerved violently back to the kerb;
obviously he'd been unaware that I'be been behind him all that time.
