That's exactly where I mounted my horns, one on each side... Figured more idiots come at me from the sides then from in front of me... (That, and the engine hangers make a great mounting spot.) |

それはホーンです。 That's "It's the horn" in Japanese. I assume the petcock is on the reverse side because they drive on the wrong side of the road...  |

Im not going to lie, reverse would be more than a little handy sometimes. I have a rock driveway. Some times backing out of the garage thought the rocks flat sucks....
