I prefer lefts, and I think I figured out why... On a left hander, my head's further from oncoming traffic, while my wheels are further from the c**p at the side of the road. Obviously, that makes no actual difference, but I used to be very paranoid of the edge of the road after running right out the outside of a fast right hander (still no idea at all why i didn't crash...) and I think that sank in.

The 2 fastest corners on my regular route are lefts as well, which probably helps.

Right handed and do right handers better(as most normal peeps :P ).

Really have to work at left handers.

Cheers

Have found that the way to workis mostly left handers with all the rights at lights. The way home (not the same as the way to work) is mostley left handers with all the rights at lights. As the tyres have been on for winter and have not been out on her except for work seem to get down more on the left than the right.
