I lived in Japan for a long time. In Tokyo, all bikes go to the front under the traffic light, either along the curb or down the middle. It's standard operating procedure, and everyone accepts and expects it.
It wasn't easy to keep behind the cages for me when I first moved back here, though now I'm used to it. Still, I would feel a lot safer up in front than in back watching my mirror. I've also been known to pass miles and miles of bumper to bumper traffic down the side of the road on the berm, but that was the good old days. Again, over there it was considered normal. In Japan, people carry neither guns nor chips on their shoulders. But don't get me started... Ride safe. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
