I'm guessing that was taken in the UK ? Looks like a road tax disc on the front bike.

I drive and ride on both sides of the road whether it be at home, the UK or in North America, but to be honest i still prefer driving on the left side of the road.
Especially on a bike it just feels better taking the turns on that side of the road.
Its interesting to note that many American cars in their early form were made as right hand drive.
The gold bike on the front looks like a 76 with a 77 ft fender and Tarozzi engine guards, and thats one huge rear carrier on it as well.
Still its an excellent photo.
Two strokes, its just that simple.

I've been riding on the left for the last 20 odd years in the Netherlands and Europe. But when I'm back in England it just seems right to be on the left side of the road!

I had zero problem driving on the left when I moved to Japan... (had a couple Suzuki mini-cars - rear engine 350cc 2-stroke triples - 10 inch wheels)...or during several trips to Antigua...

My problem was learning to drive on the right side again...big issue... Scared the hell out of the car salesman on the test drive immediately upon returning stateside... :oops: :oops: :oops:
