What owners report
THE ORIENTATION OF THE HORN BUTTON AND TURN SIGNAL IS DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER MOTORCYCLE AND IS DANGEROUS TO THE OPERATOR WHEN TRYING TO USE THE TURN SIGNAL OR THE HORN.....WHEN NEGOTIATING A CORNER.....
THE HORN BUTTON IS IN A NON-STANDARD PLACE. EVERY BIKE I'VE RIDDEN FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS THE HORN BUTTON IS BOTTOM LEFT CONTROL, WHILE THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH IS ABOVE IT (MIDDLE POSITION). EVEN IN TRAINING CLASSES (MSF FOR SURE) THEY TEACH YOU WHERE EACH CONTROL IS LOCATED, AND THEY ARE STANDARDS FOR ALL BIKES SO YOU CAN ALWAYS KNOW WHERE TO REACH THEM WITHOUT LOOKING, AND KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE ROAD. ON MY '17 HONDA REBEL, THEY HAVE DECIDED TO SWITCH CONTROL POSITIONS FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I FEEL THIS REPRESENTS A TREMENDOUS SAFETY HAZARD, AS I'VE ALREADY ENCOUNTERED SITUATIONS WHERE I NEEDED TO WARN OFF A VEHICLE FROM ENCROACHING IN MY LANE, AND MY THUMB IMMEDIATELY REACHES FOR THE LOWER
