Quick question for the group (mostly the canadian members):
I've always signalled a right-hand turn by sticking my right arm straight out to the right. Left turns were always with the right arm bent at the elbow, with the hand up. Braking is the same with the hand down.
Guess what?! That's WRONG, apparently. Right turns are what I was signalling as left turns, and vice versa. Since when does a right arm sticking straight out not mean a right turn, and who's educating the public on this?
Arne, oh traffic-copness, please enlighten me!

All signals are done with the left arm.
Left arm straight out = left turn Clyde
Left arm straight out and bent UP at the elbow = right turn Clyde
Left arm straight out and pointed DOWN at the elbow = slow to stop.
Cheers,
Arne - who had to demonstrate this when he got his licence in 1980.

and not for our KLR's which I think are in more demand?
Maybe cuz we already got dat big ol' 6 gallon with a half gallon of non
usable fuel...if they made it bigger it would probably just have more
useless fuel areas. ;^)
