Switching switches?

Interesting. I thought it was just me, because I came from a 1973 CB350, and, you know, they did things different in 1973. For instance, I can turn my headlight off. That's a good thing, since the alternator doesn't charge the battery with the headlight on at idle. And the headlight switch is right side, three position: OFF, ON, HI.

When I got on the CB1100 I spent an amusing few seconds trying to figure out how to turn the lights on. The run/stop switch on the CB350 is a knob, middle position is on, either way for off. If the engine is off, I can never figure out which way the run/stop switch on the CB1100 is which.

Oh, and I probably rode 400 miles before I figured out that you can push the turn signal to cancel. I kept trying to return it to the center, but it was already there!

All of this I could live with. The fact that I honk the horn every time I want to change lanes is just embarrassing. If you find a good solution, I'm willing to learn. Haven't been back on the CB350 in since I got the new bike, but I'm guessing that's going to be fun...
