I can't break myself of this habit. Then again, I'm riding a 250 that turns 5k and 50, 6k and 60, 7k at 70, etc.
Speaking of gears, a pretty good turn-cancellation algorithm could be built around not being in first or second gear after not being in second gear for some period of time.

... that elusive 7th gear (or 6th if '13 CB1100).

6th gear - the impossible dream.

Good one. What about a slight variation as follows? Mine in red.

Tried your procedure today, and yes, that works as well. In both cases you just have to do it every time ... for a short while.
Thanks Stich and Cormanus

Three or four of the bikes I've test ridden this year had cancelling turn signals, and I could not care less. I'd notice in some form of amazement how it actually works, and then hit the button again just to be sure, and to satisfy my ADD. One thing I did notice was that the CB1100 button is one of the better. Both location and function satisfies, unlike many others. I ranted about how unbelievably awesome the HD Pan America is, but I really hated the controls. It made me think of how a lot of hand tools are too big for most women, and how they have to make up techniques to use them, since the industry (and guys on FB) just doesn't care.
Harleys are obviously made for bigger guys than me.
