Ditto, Freddie,
Had a 20-something dude giving me the thumbs up in the next lane and as we approached an intersection, my lane was clear, his wasn't, but he didn't see that Volvo in front of him until the very last second. CRUNCH!
I'll be yanking the choke off my carb so that will free up a switch spot to the left of the steering column, at least that would be closer for the horn button. Maybe it's just the reach.
Maybe I just need to clean out my sidepipes and not leave anything to chance. Make sure EVERYONE knows I'm there...
