3 lefts make a right. Once you get used to it, it will seem odd the other way. It took me a while to figure out how long to hold the button down so it wouldn't canceljust before making the turn.

I use the throttle lock occasionally just like OFG does...just not all the time, mostly on long rides on boring roads. But I don't set it so tight it can't be manually over ridden, or loosened easily while riding. I also noticed that when I throttle down I do NOT let the spring dictate my actions, so using the throttle lock is safe used like OFG suggested.I just wished it was more of a "lever" type mechanism instead of the star wheel.

The turn signals on either side took some getting used to. I thought it was peculiar and the other bikes using it on the left side only I think are more "intuitive". But then I thought about it. Having the signals onboth sides allows Harleys to have emergency flashers! Just push both signals at the same time, and you have hazard lights. I used them at my first Patriot Guard mission yesterday, and again coming back when me and the other guy I was riding with had to pull over on the side of the road temporarily. I'm used to the turn signals now, and I have small hands with short fingers and thumbs.

I use hand signals occasionally, but I'm fully aware that the vehicle behind me probably doesn't know what the hell I'm doing, so I use turn signals mostly.

Try the Throttle Mate lever, it works great, especially with gloves on.
